Wait For History Lyrics by Deconstruction

Deconstruction

1994

Sanwa Bank building
The temple of Karnak
And the scent of a steam engine
The halls of the faces that came before me
And the pillars we placed there
The more you push it
The more it all falls down
Trapped in a musty room
Till the process punch puts a hole through
The boards on all the windows
And the light comes streaming in
And it shines on the dust
Who am I to know?
From which direction? From where
The help I needed would come
Thank you so much for lifting the shroud off of me
So again I can see the grey
For what it is which is everything
The wind and an unselfconscious breast
The wait for history
The wait for history
It's not up to me
It's time that decides terra-cotta fountains
All dried up leave it all again
To the roaches when our dirty sidewalk becomes sheet rock
And history becomes geology
