lyrics

A town called Cinderella
You can hear the stillness
Through highrise cutouts
That invite
Strange birds

A town called Cinderella
Golden doors
Down caste

Under pressure
Unrest
Shriek and fall as dying dogs

Look through frames
Flanked by mountains and dust
Caeser never came here
John left it unwashed

If you make it to the falls
In the moonlight
Like hair hanging from a tower
They say
You can see
Firebirds at the bottom of the cove

Who was?
The singer
The dancer

Who was?
The runner
The daughter
The singer
The dancer

Five fingers from the ground
Ten to build a church
Five fingers from the ground
Call the chorus to the west

Pull by fading light
Push the neck where the head lays
Keep your coins, ready to dive
As the sun bruises the sky
Before slinking away
Fingers break to reach
To promise God's embrace
Follow to the falls
Where dreams still float
Bloated and beloved
