lyrics

You called me quiet one
Holding back the truth behind your tongue
I’m reaching back behind the curtain
For some self control
You’d asked me if I ever
Lived a life as good as this one
I’m just a passenger, darling
Walking around the inside of your soul

You could put the blame on anyone
To think that we’re just running around the sun

And I never really lied to you
It’s just the truth I hide from you
It’s all the same with what remains
It’s true
I was never ready to love you

You’ve told yourself
There’s no room left to put a face on
Then I come walking through your life
With half my cards drawn
These walls can’t speak the way I do
And they can’t feel love
These walls keep secrets like a priest
Dear, you’re the holy one

You could put the blame on anything
The way I’m pressed for time, the way I sing

There’s wonder in these halls that keeps me waiting for your call
It’s easy to believe you’re somewhere else
And I could fill your head with all the books I’ve ever read
It’s easy to believe you’re something else
It’s nothing under my control that you’re the rehab of my soul
It’s hardest to believe you’re nothing else
And I know it wasn’t right
The way I spoke to you in the park
But I swear, it was perfect
The way you spoke to me in the dark

You could put the blame on anyone
This lack of movement’s overdone
