"Frank Gehry" lyrics

"Frank Gehry"

I'm no heathen
Got my Jesus but
I've been struggling for days
"Days" I mean a year or longer
And all my demons
They're all sleeping
Cause I keep getting in the way
We do the same job but I'm working harder

Comparison will break your soul
Will tear your sail and sink your boat
Can y'all hear me?
Comparison is the thief of joy
Yet I built my home in the shadow of a Frank Gehry

Profoundly haunting to
Live by wanting
I've been starving now for days
My plate is full but I just ain't eating
And I'll be honest
I know all this
I've been the preacher in the choir
I still don't hear me
But I'm steady speaking

Comparison will break your soul
Will tear your sail and sink your boat
Can y'all hear me? And I know
Comparison is the thief of joy
Yet I built my home in the shadow of a Frank Gehry

Damn the voices
In my head
That beg for more
While being fed
Damn my eyes
That hunger for
What arms can't keep
Or belly hold

Comparison will break your soul
Will tear your sail and sink your boat
Can y'all hear me? And I know
Comparison is the thief of joy
Yet I built my home in the shadow of a Frank Gehry

Damn the voices
In my head
That beg for more
While being fed
