Future Islands - An Apology - Undressed Version lyrics

This is what I know
The canopy loss of our home
Is a far cry, while I'm away

Tethered to finding a rope
We walk in precarious ways
And go alone at night to Misery's bed
In Misery's bed, we stay

So far away here in the tremble and pulse
With the rush and the weight of the world
I am a cannibal, known
Begging the lashes to break

You find me awake in a dream
A scream in the dark, so it seems
Or is that just how it leaves?
The shadow I cast now the breeze

So far away

So this is how it goes
With the loss of our canopy home
That falls with the leaves from the trees
As we pass

And I wasn't there in the last
But, I was surely there from the first
Here, in my chest where you burst
I keep the crush and the weight of the world

So far away
