lyrics

Have you built yourself well

Have you built yourself well
Have you tied up the loose ends
With a good story to tell
Stick on stick
Brick on brick
Watch the walls rise and lift
Lift yourself up on it
Have you built
Have you built yourself well

Have you built yourself well
Are you walking on eggshells
Do you hinder or help yourself
Fireworks fall
Lights burn out
Plans are made
Words wear out
And north can feel like south
Have you built
Have you built yourself well

You don’t end you don’t begin
My cinnamon sin
Knock yourself down , rebuild rebegin
The cathedral you’re in
The cathedral you’re in

Hope but don’t hope too much
The ghost in you gathers dust
If he haunts you he must
See your name , see it lit
The size of a merchant ship
Sail away swim from it
Have you built
Have you built yourself well

A colour .. a rich mahogany warm and beautiful
and a water color painting all have in common???
