Pyramids Songtext
von Trouble Over Tokyo

Up on high and way above the water
I dissect, destroy and put back, I
I′ve been sourrounded by my bricks and mortar
And I just can't move for materials

Oh my! Oh me!
I can′t see
I've been blinded by
This sand im my eyes
Oh me! Oh my!
Though I try
I can't
Find an order for it all

When I′m too close to the picture I can′t make any sence
And so I reach into my pocket for a fist of regrets
And through a hammer and a chizle I destroy 'till it gets
A little clearer...


I don′t know if all I've got to give
Will ever be enough to lift the lid
But I understand that while I live
I′ll build pyramids

I don't know if all I have will do
To build a fitting marker for this tomb
But I know that while I′ve got the room
I'll build pyramids

Oh I been sharing all my stones and cement, I
I've been running about of air! -
I been neglecting what my insides need, I
I′ve been running away from it! -

Oh my! Oh me!
I couldn′t see
I've been blinded by
This sand im my eyes
Oh me! Oh my!
Though I try
I can′t
Find an order for it all

I dissect, destroy and put back, I
I've been sourrounded by my bricks and mortar
And I just can′t move for materials


Oh my! Oh me!
I can't see
I′ve been blinded by
This sand im my eyes
Oh me! Oh my!
Though I try
I can't
Find an order for it all

When I'm too close to the picture I can′t make any sence
And so I reach into my pocket for a fist of regrets
And through a hammer and a chizle I destroy ′till it gets
A little clearer...

I don't know if all I′ve got to give
Will ever be enough to lift the lid
But I understand that while I live
I'll build pyramids

I don′t know if all I have will do
To build a fitting marker for this tomb
But I know that while I've got the room
I′ll build pyramids
