Skyscraper Souls Lyrics by Downes Braide Association

Skyscraper Souls

2017

[Narration: Barney Ashton Bullock]
You could never be too careless with selflessness
This, here and now, is where we are
This drop of light amidst an infinity of stars
This brief tick-tock of woods amidst eternity
[Verse 1: Chris Braide]
There is a voice inside us all
A hollow place where gods and angels fall
Where darkness wraps around the mind
Hiding in shadows stealing holy time
[Pre-chorus: Chris Braide, Chris Braide, Kate Pierson]
We're mountains climbers you and I
Raging against the dying light
We all have our fears and our demons
We're all marking time like the changing seasons
[Chorus: Chris Braide, Chris Braide, Kate Pierson]
How can I stop myself from falling
When there's nothing between me and the white moonless skies?
I'm trying to hold on but I keep walking
Into thin air
Onto thin ice
[Verse 2: Chris Braide, Kate Pierson]
I don't know what I'm reaching for
Oooh
We all get stuck with who we think we are
Can we escape from our mind games
Our mind games
Or leave the poor hearts citadel to flames?
We're mountain climbers you and I
Searching for something more than merely time
[Pre-Chorus: Chris Braide, Kate Pierson]
This blue night unending, storm clouds remain
Far out through the tides of darkness
On this melancholy train
[Chorus: Chris Braide, Chris Braide, Kate Pierson]
How can I stop myself from falling
When there's nothing between me and the white moonless skies?
I'm trying to hold on but I keep walking
Into thin air
Onto thin ice
[Bridge 1: Chris Braide, Chris Braide, Kate Pierson]
Far over the lands
Beyond the darkness
I'm searching
You're searching
We're searching
Far over the lands
Beyond the darkness
I'm searching
You're searching
We're searching
Wake up, wake up
While the sun's up
Wake up, wake up
While the sun's up
Far over the lands
Beyond the darkness
I'm searching
Far over the lands
Beyond the darkness
I'm searching
You're searching
We're searching
[Bridge 2: Elijah and Sascha Braide]
If we can't turn back the clock
We just keep turning on this rock
Searching for a place called home
With our skyscraper souls
I'm faced with a new dilemna
With my heart under a weight
Deny these thoughts in my head
Submit to a whole new state
We were inseparable
Locked in an ego maze
Now we are strangers
Living in hostile ways
Can you tell me where we go from here?
I may have changed somewhat
But no one stays the same
I'm just trying to live freely in the flow of my life stream
Together and breathless we climb this windy hill
Wind and earth and time stand still
Is this what happens when we die?
We come back to life
Together and breathless we climb this windy hill
Wind and earth and time stand still
[Chorus: Chris Braide, Chris Braide, Kate Pierson]
How can I stop myself from falling
When there's nothing between me and the white moonless skies?
I'm trying to hold on but I keep walking
Into thin air
Onto thin ice
[Chorus: Chris Braide, Chris Braide, Kate Pierson]
How can I stop myself from falling
When there's nothing between me and the white moonless skies?
I'm trying to hold on but I keep walking
Into thin air
Onto thin ice
Into thin air
Onto thin ice
Into thin air
Onto thin ice
Into thin air
Onto thin ice
[Narration:Barney Ashton Bullock]
Conkers, acorn, pussy velvet
Twinkling autumns;
We longed for September's end
And the nocturnal frosts that seemed so familiar
To embalm, enshroud, like a spirit possessed
Yes, but by benevolence
[Pre-Chorus: Chris Braide]
We're mountains climbers you and I
Raging against the dying light
(Oooh)
Raging against the dying light
Against the dying light
(Aaah)
Yeah
[Bridge 3: Chris Braide]
Ocean child
Take me away
Far away
From all of the madness
Ocean child
With your long dark hair
Cascading down
Cascading down
Ocean child
Take me away
Far away
From all the madness
We are one
We are one
Ocean child
Take me away
Far away
From all of the madness
Ocean child
We are one
We are one
Take me away
We are one
Far away
We are one
Take me away
Yeah
Ocean child
[Outro: Chris Braide]
And if we can't turn back the clock
We just keep turning on this rock
Searching for a place called home
With our skyscraper souls
We are
Skyscraper souls
