Out of a Scene

Sure, I feel fine
Yeah, like a goddamn birthday cake
God, I hope you feel the same way
An unfinished wine
'Cause I never know when to blink
So before the band cuts in
Could you take me out?
Tell me what I think

Oh you're a vision on the screen

Scared if I start thinking
I'll move a little closer to the end
So make a joke about a serious thing
Walk it off until I feel thin again

Then suddenly it's nothing
Like waking up from all the answers in a dream
I share a blank stare with the ceiling
And all the nervous actors talking over me

Oh, Adeline
Come down anytime
I could use the drive

Oh you're a vision on the screen

Yeah baby, it'll be alright
Better you than someone I can't see through
At least you'll keep me in the neighbourhood
Until the buzz inside your mind goes south
Or that feeling slips and the band plays me out
And I walk right off into the night

Suddenly it goes to nothing
Like waking up from all the answers in a dream
I share a blank stare with the ceiling
And all the nervous actors talking over me

If I only knew the question
Or what voice to use when you pull out of a scene
I'd share a quiet song with the evening
While all the nervous dancers tap around the beat

Oh, Adeline
Come down anytime
I could use the drive

Sure, I feel fine
Yeah, like a goddamn hurricane
God, I hope you don't feel the same way
Scared if I start thinking
I'll move a little closer to the end
So make a joke about a serious thing
Walk it off until I feel thin again

Then suddenly it's nothing
Like waking up from all the answers in a dream
