  • Open your borders and give me my orders
    I can slip into violence or fall into silence
    And pretend you're a nation, an endless vacation
    I'm your motel militia, gelato vanilla

    And I thought I could earn your trust
    But can't, can't stop a wanderlust
    But I'm glad I'm your guy

    Help me build a great big concrete wall around my failings
    Doubt keeps creepin' in, I think it's slippin' through the railings
    Sometimes I get so low that my friends say I've gone caving
    But when it's just the two of us I feel fuckin' amazing

    I get so nervous when I'm on your surface
    I go deep in your language, the meat in your sandwich
    But I feel like burrata and less like Sinatra
    Alexa a sonata, prepare me to martyr

    Oh, I thought I would die for you
    But now I've got to join the queue

    Help me build a great big concrete wall around my failings
    Doubt keeps creepin' in, I think it's slippin' through the railings
    Sometimes I get so low that my friends say I've gone caving
    But when it's just the two of us I feel fuckin' amazing

    Help me build a great big concrete wall around my failings
    Doubt keeps creepin' in, I think it's slippin' through the railings
    Sometimes I get so low that my friends say I've gone caving
    But when it's just the two of us I feel fuckin' amazing

    Help me build a great big concrete wall around my failings
    Doubt keeps creepin' in, I think it's slippin' through the railings
    Sometimes I get so low that my friends say I've gone caving
    But when it's just the two of us I feel fuckin' amazing Writer/s: Arni Hjorvar Arnason, Freddie Clayton Cowan, Justin James Hayward-Young, Timothy Andrew Lanham, William Anthony John Bloomfield, Yoann Intonti
