Lyrics

We're swerving in and out of lanes with our coinciding pains
Would you calm down please?
And though you say it's not the case
We're full of irony and space, and you know it
But oh you've known it all along
You see this constant change in plans is tossed about in plastic hands
Don't you feel that?
And though we're out here on our own, we're a thousand miles from home
We could make it, and we could take this in our hands
We could fall between these lines if you would work with me
I could pull you from this cellar; we could break these chains together
And you'll become just what you always meant to be
From this darkness, we're escaping as we're climbing from the belly of the sea
And all these battle lines are placed
Though their meaning's been erased into silence
So we stayed and stood our ground, though there was no one to be found
We were so afraid, but we just stood on anyway
Don't you wait
You know that you were made for this
