Lyrics
Gonna strip the varnish from the floorboards by the door
Where your suitcase wheels left a scratch mark back in August '24.

Yeah, the architecture of the afterglow,
A floorplan for the only life I'll get to know.

But a man's gotta know the load-bearing bones in his own damn walls.
[Outro]
My solitude schematic.
Just drawing the lines.
