lyrics

You
I’ve got your picture in a box
inside the closet with the démodé
You
I keep your letters behind the clock,
and though the ticking stopped
I know the time it is
(It is) a fundamental state we fabricate
to gauge the benefit of forgetfulness
and quantify the rest
You’re an undertow
pulling out the seeds
You commit to hide
our situation
(baby, come on)
I am overgrown –
pulling at the seams
you commit to hide –
mending your guilt till its out of time
You,
insert you covert point of view
in half truths and restrained exchange
And silence
While I dissect the content of your careful construction
(Construction is) a fundamental state we fabricate
to raise an edifice we can jointly brace –
against our better sense
You’re an undertow
pulling out the seeds
You commit to hide
our situation
(baby, come on)
I am overgrown
pulling at the seams
you commit to hide –
mending your guilt till its out of time
What are you waiting for?
(What you can’t ignore)
You move someone, then move aside
Regret your makings and proceed as blind
So blindly we go follow the guise,
just like faithless true believers make a home in lies
We’re building facades till they’re out of mind
