lyrics

I've been having trouble staying awake.
Been killing memories and trying to please.
A brittle leaf that's barely holding on to an open cavity.
I've been hard of hearing for too long.
It's always quiet when you're never wrong.
Our love has been here before.

The only thing that is gold are the things that you told me
when you were never right.
The whole cover is blown, what's left to be shown now?
Burning those florescent lights.
Hands to my chest but you think that I'm resting.
Slipping on stepping stones.
Needle in groove, and it never stops proving
everything good is dead.

Sometimes in conversation you can hear little doubts of intention that never show.
And I know what you're thinking cause I know you can't stop behaving like you're alone.
