Antithesis
A dull brick wall is staring back at me
An old shag carpet hugs the floor
Dusty plastic lines the lampshades
Smoky curtains flank the door
Its one more room, one more motel bed
In one more tired oil town
One more muffled conversation hits my ears
Stoic stones don't make a sound
I left my heart out on the east coast
So if you see him take him in
I'm sure he's cold without my body and my blood
Without my skin to shield the wind
I used to wear him on my sleeve when i was young
We shared the sunshine and the rain
But i don't wanna risk him out here in all this hail
I doubt he'd ever be the same
I doubt he'd ever be the same
Another chair waiting on all fours
A lonesome heater radiates
Another mirror reflects on what it sees
Another pillow suffocates
Just one more room, one more hotel bed
In one more wired coffee town
One more movie pulls my mind away from you
Relentless bricks staring me down
I left my heart out on the east coast
So if you see him wont you take him in
I'm sure he's cold without my body and my blood
Without my skin to shield the wind
I used to wear him on my sleeve when i was young
He loved the sunshine and the rain
But i just couldn't bear to break him here in all this hail
I'm sure he'd never be the same
I'm sure he'd never be the same
I doubt we'd ever be the same
I know we'd never be the same
An old shag carpet hugs the floor
Dusty plastic lines the lampshades
Smoky curtains flank the door
Its one more room, one more motel bed
In one more tired oil town
One more muffled conversation hits my ears
Stoic stones don't make a sound
I left my heart out on the east coast
So if you see him take him in
I'm sure he's cold without my body and my blood
Without my skin to shield the wind
I used to wear him on my sleeve when i was young
We shared the sunshine and the rain
But i don't wanna risk him out here in all this hail
I doubt he'd ever be the same
I doubt he'd ever be the same
Another chair waiting on all fours
A lonesome heater radiates
Another mirror reflects on what it sees
Another pillow suffocates
Just one more room, one more hotel bed
In one more wired coffee town
One more movie pulls my mind away from you
Relentless bricks staring me down
I left my heart out on the east coast
So if you see him wont you take him in
I'm sure he's cold without my body and my blood
Without my skin to shield the wind
I used to wear him on my sleeve when i was young
He loved the sunshine and the rain
But i just couldn't bear to break him here in all this hail
I'm sure he'd never be the same
I'm sure he'd never be the same
I doubt we'd ever be the same
I know we'd never be the same
