about

Build is an exploration of self and other through the challenge of violence, acts of injustice, and war—and how such threats to the relationships and lives we have built—test our character and resolve. In relationship, in community, we all must build a strong foundation for a healthy life and to realize potential, and often must continue to build and re-build during the hardest of times.

lyrics

This skin is just a skin
Touch me, hold me, kiss me
But please don’t kill me
Repeat

Oh-no-no-no-no, no!
Oh-no-no-no-no!
Repeat

See me
Come on and see me
[Repeat x2]
See me, see me!

This air is so delicious
I want to taste some more
Just like you
The sun is shining and
I’ll keep on dancing
If you’d only quit shooting
And dance with me

Come on and see me
[Repeat x3]
See me, see me!

Step outside
Addicted to sunshine
Some fresh air
Helps to clear my mind
Searching for peace
In this land of war
What the hell are you inciting for?

Won’t lose my head
I know what to do
Restore the bonds
Between me and you
In this world
That got me so confused
No more frustration
No attitude
Some people want to
Push me to the edge
Be careful
You don’t lose your head
Be true, stay working
Don’t have to eat
All the lies they fed

Don’t lose your head because
You know what to do
Stay back and
Give me some room
[Repeat]

Oh-no-no-no-no, don’t kill me
Come on and see me
See me
[Repeat]
