You're Not the Way

She tucks her keys away, something else in pocket
It was Columbus Day. A second floor apartment
He throws his arms around someone in that corner
She takes the train instead. I can't say I'm surprised

You're not the way you're supposed to be
Don't tell me. Just show me. Don't tell me. Just show me
Don't tell me. Just show me where silence breathes in you

There is a certain way, no matter time or season, to let it fall away
Nobody needs a reason to throw your arms around what keeps you going under
These shallow waves and ways that you can't keep inside

You're not the way you're supposed to be
Don't tell me. Just show me. Don't tell me. Just show me
Don't tell me. Just show me where silence breathes in you

That's when I took nothing seriously. That's when I took what was nothing...
That's when I took nothing, seriously. That's when I took what was nothing seriously
And here was laughter and here was your back
No, I can't think backwards. Now, I can't think backwards
You're my last breath. You're my... You're not the way
