lyrics

I've seen eyes of hazel and brown, blue and green, lost and found. Some anxious, others bitter and proud but those disappear lost to the crowd. But love isn't love if it needs to be proved, and without love than the truth that you speak isn't true. I won't take another lover, because loving you will leave me sober. I looked to love as if my master, but I was always looking past her. Shocking and radiant romance can be, as it withers and fizzles, lost to the breeze. I find I can trust in what it leaves behind. Because even its shadow is a hole I can hide inside. But the heart can love most anyone. Maybe our first mistake was to believe in just one love? I won't take another lover, because loving you will leave me sober. I looked to love as if my master, but I was always looking past her.

In this house alone, on this quiet corner I live in the dark with a microphone. Quiet moments caught in the Radiating tension here We can keep it low, barely make a sound When everybody’s loud, we can face the crowd. See their gnashing teeth through this... Prismatic window, so they can’t see you What are we hiding Should we be fighting Underneath the moon and sun Why should we be the clueless one? No sense in withering away If we’re gonna lose it all when our clock stops turning Why, it won’t get through to you Why, it won’t get through to you Why Can’t you find your way out? Of here? It may feel safe today Here? Where there’s hints of decay Here? Don’t you know your path is clear? Feel this castle groan Pretty Apollonia Living by the sun That is your true home, yeah Feel your tendons strain Sitting for too long, yeah Quiet in the corner is a waste. I warn yeah In this house alone, in this lonely morning Don’t live in the dark; grab a megaphone Quiet moments costing you You should radiate the blessing you are…

about

Edifice explores the many facets of love, hope, sadness and anxiety we all experience if our lives. The EP celebrates the people that grab us by the collar to pull us out of the depths of our anxiety, coaxing us to take risks by finding courage in times of darkness. These songs grapple with the weight and sway of a lost love whose presence is still felt even in their absence.

The first release as a new 6-piece band, these songs are a fusion of jazz, R&B and folk that show the best of Telephone House.
