lyrics

In time, the telephone lines go up and come back down
The fresh pavement fossilizes older city streets
Every building gets new faces; even road signs show their ages
The days put them through their paces, erased and history

And hand in hand, the boy in the band grows up to get knocked down
He used to think the money and the time were heaven spent
Is he lazy or just tired? Internal rhymes are uninspired
Why can’t there be a satisfying way to pay the rent?


I’m giving up on love
But love, god damn it, won’t give up on me
Haven’t you seen enough
To know I can’t make it what you want it to be?
Oh, why do I take my time?
Why do I pace around in a room inside my mind
Just to find
The room isn’t even mine?
That’s how it always starts:
A square peg stuck in a round hole in my heart

Good god, I expected to figure myself out
I kind of feel like that should be a job for someone else
If I’m wrong I’ll stand corrected, but we live to be connected
And there’s too much in a person to find out without some help

Good god, this is too deep a channel to dive down
I’m gonna need a better, brighter, watertight-er submarine
And in my ears your voice remains; you swim secret in my veins
I thought that I was known, but no, I wasn’t really seen at all, it seems!

I’m giving up on love
But love, god damn it, won’t give up on me, no
Haven’t you seen enough
To know I can’t make it what you want it to be?
Oh, why do I take my time?
Why do I pace around in a room inside my mind
Just to find
The room isn’t even mine?
That’s how it always starts:


Do you believe me?
I have been known to lie
You don’t even know my mind
I’m was afraid to lose
But now I’m afraid to try
What if I never choose
To look with clearer eyes?
That’s what I have to do

But now I’m running out of time!
