Motions
It's been a long time since I talked to you
I could say I miss you, but it's not the truth
We said like five words, then we walked away
I could tell the energy was not the same
But still we stayed calm while we went through the motions
Your eyes were deceptively broken
Dark blue like the depths of the ocean
I'm lost in the moment
I can't escape
'Cause you felt a way
You're manic-depressive and passive-aggressive
And I couldn't stay
Take another breath in slow
I could never let this go
Our skeletons are etched in stone
And every single effort that I murdered was a blessing and a burden
'Cause I never got a yes or no
I expect that though
How do you live like that?
Down in the shadows
Down in a ditch like that
I can't see
How do you live like that?
Drowned in the ocean
Down an abyss like that
I can't breathe
Long time since I spoke to you
Late at night I wonder if you told the truth
'Cause every fault line left an open wound
And every single memory is broke in two
But still we stayed calm while we moved through the motions
Your eyes were delusive and frozen
Dark blue like the view from the Tobin
I'll jump in a moment
I can't escape
'Cause you felt a way
You're manic-depressive and passive-aggressive
And I couldn't stay
Take another breath in slow
I could never let this go
Our skeletons are etched in stone
And every single effort that I murdered was a blessing and a burden
'Cause I never got a yes or no
I expect that though
How do you live like that?
Down in the shadows
Down in a ditch like that
I can't see
How do you live like that?
Drowned in the ocean
Down an abyss like that
I can't breathe
How do you live like that?
Down in the shadows
Down in a ditch like that
I can't see
How do you live like that?
Drowned in the ocean
Down an abyss like that
I can't breathe
I couldn't sleep
I couldn't breathe
I couldn't live like that
I couldn't sleep
I couldn't breathe
I couldn't live like that
I could say I miss you, but it's not the truth
We said like five words, then we walked away
I could tell the energy was not the same
But still we stayed calm while we went through the motions
Your eyes were deceptively broken
Dark blue like the depths of the ocean
I'm lost in the moment
I can't escape
'Cause you felt a way
You're manic-depressive and passive-aggressive
And I couldn't stay
Take another breath in slow
I could never let this go
Our skeletons are etched in stone
And every single effort that I murdered was a blessing and a burden
'Cause I never got a yes or no
I expect that though
How do you live like that?
Down in the shadows
Down in a ditch like that
I can't see
How do you live like that?
Drowned in the ocean
Down an abyss like that
I can't breathe
Long time since I spoke to you
Late at night I wonder if you told the truth
'Cause every fault line left an open wound
And every single memory is broke in two
But still we stayed calm while we moved through the motions
Your eyes were delusive and frozen
Dark blue like the view from the Tobin
I'll jump in a moment

'Cause you felt a way
You're manic-depressive and passive-aggressive
And I couldn't stay

And every single effort that I murdered was a blessing and a burden
'Cause I never got a yes or no
I expect that though
How do you live like that?
Down in the shadows
Down in a ditch like that
I can't see
How do you live like that?
Drowned in the ocean
Down an abyss like that
I can't breathe
How do you live like that?
Down in the shadows
Down in a ditch like that
I can't see
How do you live like that?
Drowned in the ocean
Down an abyss like that
I can't breathe
I couldn't sleep
I couldn't breathe
I couldn't live like that
I couldn't sleep
I couldn't breathe
I couldn't live like that
