Lyrics
Cathedral

Pretty picture
Pale show
Look at you
In your wretchedness
I pick your heart
Off the pavement and say
I'll give it back to you someday
Architect of a nightmare
How could I compare
When there's a hammer on a drum
Beating inside me
Hammer on a drum
Hammer on a drum
This love forever wonder
This love forever wonder
So light, light a candle for me
And if it burns then so do we
There in the silence
Is a distant beat
That goes on
And on and on
Like a hammer on a drum
Hammer on a drum
There's a hammer on a drum
Hammer on a drum
This love forever wonder
This love forever wonder
So here I stay
So light a candle for me
Light a candle for me
La la la la la la la
I'm a cathedral
