The Hotelier - The Scope of All of This Rebuilding lyrics

You cut our ropes, left the umbilical
And now I carry around this
Weight of broken hope
And I can’t retrace, and I lost my hold
And blame myself 'cause that is
All I’ve ever known

And your face shows doubt
When your head feels the wake of the sorrow
Swore to me that you could live without
Then the beg turns to take turns to borrow
Help me down, I just want this out
When you bend, when you break
When you follow so you cut me out

Then you cut our ropes, left the umbilical
And now I’m lost
And I can’t take this path back home
Send a birthday card, leave a one-way note
I lied, I’m sorry, this isn’t easy
I don’t know



And you’d ask me to
"Open your walls to this"
But, I’m scared, fingers broken
And ill-prepared to let this drag out

When you forgot the words to our song
I can't make this better
When you can’t remember names
It's been too long
It fell out of my hands because
When you stopped asking what was wrong
I just wasn't built to hold on
All the pressure built up it was too strong
And I can’t remember names it's been too long
And I can’t find your face in the crowd

I made a promise
Said my eyes would stay shut
Through something called the scope of
All of this rebuilding
I broke when I entered
Displaced from the center
I can’t find my way around this
My wounds healed while my fingers fixed
