lyrics
The cracks were plastered over and we started all again
and the ringing in my ears, oh we made sure that it was dead
But now there’s been a noise and emptiness and furrowed brows
and who’s to save you from me now?
And when I put my arms around you like you’re the pillar in my wall
You would then go talk to him but now him, oh, he is gone
And the others at a distance, they care for you somehow
but still who’s left to save you from me now?
Because all our friends are gone
and I’ve kicked my crutches off
And I’m warming to the idea
that only irrational fears
are what are keeping us apart
Oh, I took you in my mind last night and it just made me sad
to see you sink into the bed sheets clinging lonely with your hands
And you weren’t smiling and we weren’t happy and there was a quiet in the house
but still I can save you from you now
But I get the feeling I am only the power line beneath the leaves
the one tiny surrogate and the apartment subletee
And you’ve been perched up on high subtlely for years now
Come on, come down and be safe now
Because all our friends are gone
and you’re sleeping all alone
And you’d be happy for a time
between his legs instead of mine
but could that possibly ever be your home?
But now we know how much you love him and how I can only make you sad
and how we’ve been singing the same songs just to different people in our heads
But we can’t shake ourselves from each other and I do care where you lay
You think it wrong but there’s somewhere you can stay
’Cause if you’re open to the idea
of displacing all your fears
We could save each other from ourselves somehow
I feel we would be happy now
and the ringing in my ears, oh we made sure that it was dead
But now there’s been a noise and emptiness and furrowed brows
and who’s to save you from me now?
And when I put my arms around you like you’re the pillar in my wall
You would then go talk to him but now him, oh, he is gone
And the others at a distance, they care for you somehow
but still who’s left to save you from me now?
Because all our friends are gone
and I’ve kicked my crutches off
And I’m warming to the idea
that only irrational fears
are what are keeping us apart
Oh, I took you in my mind last night and it just made me sad
to see you sink into the bed sheets clinging lonely with your hands
And you weren’t smiling and we weren’t happy and there was a quiet in the house
but still I can save you from you now
But I get the feeling I am only the power line beneath the leaves
the one tiny surrogate and the apartment subletee
And you’ve been perched up on high subtlely for years now
Come on, come down and be safe now
Because all our friends are gone
and you’re sleeping all alone
And you’d be happy for a time
between his legs instead of mine
but could that possibly ever be your home?
But now we know how much you love him and how I can only make you sad
and how we’ve been singing the same songs just to different people in our heads
But we can’t shake ourselves from each other and I do care where you lay
You think it wrong but there’s somewhere you can stay
’Cause if you’re open to the idea
of displacing all your fears
We could save each other from ourselves somehow
I feel we would be happy now
