Lyrics

Just because you got it You don't have to flaunt it With an endless stream of famous men Pretty as a portrait Look like Mamah Borthwick On that Shining Brow of Taliesin Someone might try and burn it down So you'll have to put the fire out A fortune spent but that's irrelevant To build something that's sacred till the end It costs twenty dollars to visit Fallingwater It's a perfect house where no one lives Maybe someone once did but they got evicted by a bus Load full of greedy tourists And it would take a time machine To fulfill all of my fantasies 'Cause a hidden dream can be embarrassing And the only thing that's sacred till the end Every time I tempt fate There's a major earthquake Heard the people scream as the ceiling fell Every building damaged Only one left standing It was Frank Lloyd Wright's Imperial Hotel A rumination in my mind Winding like the ramp at the Guggenheim And I'm not there yet But I'm feeling confident to build something that's sacred till the end
