Bowery
Local Natives

We were standing at forsyth and bowery

Flowers and painted foreheads trying to forget


Can't tell if the ceiling is rising

Or if the floor is falling down.


I remember sunrise without sleep

God-like and cowering

Taller, stacks of stones is all I have to show



I can't tell if the ceiling is rising

Or if the floor is falling down


At the time I wasn't with you, by the time I didn't care

At the time I wasn't with you, by the time I didn't care


Falling so much faster than you and I could ever climb
