It's interesting

It's interesting

The time we spent building a hollow tower
And how we left to live elsewhere
Rex still waiting inside, ducking ever lower
Dodging growing bats, mad of despair

Roof's leaking, love
And floor's covered with buckets
I'll layer my jackets
When push comes to shove

It's interesting

The stones stacked
The sweat dropped here
A smell of fear
And all that cement cracked

Southern aile's shaky
Ivory tower barely holds
Kitchen's sinking, sprouting molds
And nature's lacking mercy

It's interesting

How you build a house thinking it's the future
And the second you lay the last stone
Past takes over and time conquers all
Blooming mess and cracks galore

It's interesting 

We built a house thinking it would last
And last it did ... until we built it
