Palace lyrics

You were simpler

you were lighter when we thought like little kids

Like a weightless, hate-less animal

beautifully oblivious before you were hid inside a stranger you grew into

as you learned to disconnect

Now he hangs your mirrors separately

so one can't show you what the other reflects

When he heard I was on his tail

he emptied your account and hid a part of you that's so invaluable

(the part of you unsellable at any amount)

He left the tallest peak of your paradise

buried in the bottom of a canyon in hell

but I swear I'll find your light in the middle

where there's so little late at night, down in the pit of the well

Then when heaven has a line around the corner

we shouldn't have to wait around and hope to get in

if we can carpenter a home in our heart right now

and carve a palace from within

We won't need to take a ton of pictures

It won't be easy to believe

the day we wake inside a secret place that everyone can see
