Mocktale - Carving Party Lyrics

You're antique
Made brand new in the seventies
Make me look like I've never breathed
Ever the old soul
But you're cynical
Your judgements a hammer, so critical
Building up walls with any old nails
Pound them right into my skull

So find me
Right out of your reach I'll be hiding
Wondering, wandering, flying
Desperately trying to lead
But that's not good enough
Crying
Bet your life I'll be climbing
Aching to reach all the high peaks
You left behind with me
You thought I was too weak

I think
I'm bigger than you'll ever see
Just over five feet won't stop me
From towering over your ego
Don't doubt me
You only knew me at sixteen
You preserved my youth, unfreeze me
I wanna be more than just smoke

But you breathe me
In push me out as I'm steaming
Setting of heat, soak in your skin
Am I only your hope
No I'm not finished yet
Catch me
If you can cause I'm sprinting
Far from your hands and you'll miss me
Far more than you know
But I'm not your hero

Do you see me
As more than stones beneath your feet
Keep the skeletons inside your closet
But stay far away from me
Walk through your
Self constructed cemetery
You think I'm dead to you
But your graveyards coming clean

So find me
Right out of your reach I'll be hiding
Wondering, wandering, flying
Desperately trying to lead
But that's not good enough
Crying
Bet your life I will be climbing
Aching to reach all the high peaks
You left behind with me
But I was never weak
