Disaster

You can just make out the ghost on the landing when the sun goes down
I've been bouncing my daydreams off the walls just to hear a sound
Now it's Sunday night and all the light evacuated this town

Overstayed my welcome still a tourist after all these years
I would have checked in, but my reflection took its time to get here
I should've reached out, but all my doubts never disappeared

It's inevitable really
That our signals to the world get misunderstood
And you've been trying to make it easy
It's a chemical reaction
And I probably wouldn't change it if I could
Waiting for disaster to turn to something good

Four in the morning and I wasn't sure if you were awake
Pulling weeds out in the garden but it didn't quite take
It's getting harder to pretend that I am not gonna break
I'm not gonna break
I'm not gonna break

Out on the pavement all the pagans getting reckless and dumb
They're dosing heavy and forgetting all the places they're from
Blur your eyes and you'll see you're not the only one
You're not the only one

And I know it's unfamiliar
But this feeling means you're human after all
Just when you were losing faith
It's a chemical reaction
Just like a leaf that's holding onto fall
Waiting for disaster

Well, the muse left me in rapture, stretched me out until I couldn't see the lines
You're a million miles away out there
I know, I counted it out a million times

When you asked me how I'm sleeping if I'm following the news
I got so much inspiration but there's just nothing I can use
Well, the pounding and the beating every time I'm on the line
I can't turn it all away again, I wish I could get nothing on my mind
Mind

Four in the morning and I wasn't sure if you were awake
Just calling to tell you that it never was a matter of faith
It's getting harder to pretend that I am not gonna break
I'm not gonna break
I am not gonna break
I'm not gonna break
I am not gonna break
