| Wake up, try on your new disguise,
|
| Would they recognize you anyway?
|
| Would they?
|
| Dead leaves lie down beneath your feet
|
| As you step into the street and
|
| Notice the distance between the hearts and homes
|
| But still you know it’s alright.
|
| You’re not looking back this time.
|
| You know it’s alright.
|
| You’re stepping on the cracks and you feel fine.
|
| Don’t waste your breath.
|
| You wouldn’t want this anyway.
|
| And if you did, I think I’d let you,
|
| Talk this to death, or in circles like we’re aeroplanes.
|
| But all along I knew that we would sputter out.
|
| We would sputter.
|
| Outside constructions workers pour
|
| A brand new basement floor.
|
| But then the ground starts shaking
|
| fault lines to your own front door.
|
| I looked at this and thought of you,
|
| And all that is and isn’t true,
|
| And with the strength left in me,
|
| walked on while the walls came down.
|
| It’s alright.
|
| You’re not looking back this time.
|
| You know it’s alright.
|
| I’m stepping on the cracks and I feel fine.
|
| Don’t waste your breath.
|
| You wouldn’t want this anyway.
|
| And if you did, I think I’d let you,
|
| Talk this to death, or in circles like we’re aeroplanes.
|
| But all along I knew that we would sputter out.
|
| We would sputter.
|
| We would sputter…
|
| We would sputter…
|
| We would sputter out…
|
| We would sputter out.
|
| Don’t waste your breath.
|
| You wouldn’t want this anyway.
|
| And if you did, I think I’d let you,
|
| Talk this to death, or in circles like we’re aeroplanes.
|
| But all along I knew that we would sputter out. |
| (We would sputter)
|
| But all along I knew that we would sputter out. |
| (We would sputter)
|
| But all along I knew that we would sputter out.
|
| We would sputter
|
| We would sputter down. |
