lyrics

Oh we'll all move on to prettier ones, which is what we thought at the start
But for now we'll pretend we're the only ones, collapsing and rebuilding in the dark
And I'll take you down to the river's edge
And we'll think about all the things it says
Oh a thought knocks me into the water
The current moves and my ripples smooth

And the water drags me under
But I'm still breathing underwater
I see your eyes are glassing over
On the shore you blink and something's changed
I never meant it that way

Oh night's the only peace that exists
And sleep's the only way to resist
Ignorance is the one thing I miss
If I'm wrong I won't be afraid to admit,
But I think I'm not the one you're looking for

They'll all be
Pictures on the wall for me
That's all I need
Frozen faces smiling knowingly.
