The Hotelier - Dendron lyrics
[The Hotelier - Dendron lyrics]
You cut your ties, felt better off
Salutations to your son
Awoke to find you heading out
With your white collar undone
You placed a bar, I played a game
To see how low that I could go
We develop mental pictures
And we’re following our fathers
Down the drain
Do you recall the imagery
From when I drove you away?
Through others’ rose prescription lens
Man, I’m sorry every day
Because we intersect internally
And then we take what we have and we run
And it all starts to unravel
Until we’re less than we were carrying before
Guess I expected more
Wake me, wake me up
Pictures of you smiling in times
When I just couldn’t be around
Hold me, hold me up
Count my rings to see how many winters
I’ve been stuck here underground
Swore I’d not burn out
Digging through the memories that
Made you feel alive when you were young
You were right to doubt
Broken since foundations in the
Structures you were building came undone
Part of your charm was the way
You would push me from
All of the traps that I just couldn’t see
Figures the one that was there
To have tripped you up
Would be the one that was set there by me
Wish I was there to say
Goodbye when you went away
Wish I was home, oh, but no place was there
I cut off my arm at the bone in solidarity
Capital teaches that there’s less
When you share and I felt the noose tighten
Up on your collarbone
And I felt the gun in the small of your back
Engraved in the stone by request
And recurse of friends dead
Is, "Tell me again that it’s all in my head"
Salutations to your son
Awoke to find you heading out
With your white collar undone
You placed a bar, I played a game
To see how low that I could go
We develop mental pictures
And we’re following our fathers
Down the drain
Do you recall the imagery
From when I drove you away?
Through others’ rose prescription lens
Man, I’m sorry every day
Because we intersect internally
And then we take what we have and we run
And it all starts to unravel
Until we’re less than we were carrying before
Guess I expected more
Wake me, wake me up
Pictures of you smiling in times
When I just couldn’t be around
Hold me, hold me up
Count my rings to see how many winters
I’ve been stuck here underground
Swore I’d not burn out
Digging through the memories that
Made you feel alive when you were young
You were right to doubt
Broken since foundations in the
Structures you were building came undone
Part of your charm was the way
You would push me from
All of the traps that I just couldn’t see
Figures the one that was there
To have tripped you up
Would be the one that was set there by me
Wish I was there to say
Goodbye when you went away
Wish I was home, oh, but no place was there
I cut off my arm at the bone in solidarity
Capital teaches that there’s less
When you share and I felt the noose tighten
Up on your collarbone
And I felt the gun in the small of your back
Engraved in the stone by request
And recurse of friends dead
Is, "Tell me again that it’s all in my head"
