Jakarta Lyrics by Daniel Blake

Jakarta

2021

[Verse 1]
Bed linens and folded fault lines
Split to patterns on the settled floor
Distant bodies like a silent request
Hanging from a motel door

[Pre-Chorus]
You and me are only shadows
Hiding from the morning light
Treading down a risky river
Taking shelter in the twilight

[Chorus]
Don't you say you love me
Write it on the walls as they crumble down
Jakarta skies so lovely
Setting sun on a sinking town
As we are, we are, going down

[Verse 2]
High tide and water rising
Feel it rushing through the cracks below
Talk around the situation
For a reason but we both know

[Pre-Chorus]
You and me are only shadows
Hiding from the morning light
Treading down a risky river
In the twilight

[Chorus]
Don't you say you love me
Write it on the walls as they crumble down
Jakarta skies so lovely
Setting sun on a sinking town
As we are, we are, we are going down

[Bridge]
Never to be so we settled to breath
As the world is falling

[Chorus]
Don't you say you love me
Write it on the walls as they crumble down
Jakarta skies so lovely
Setting sun on a sinking town
As we are, we are, we are going down
