lyrics

I stirred in you commotion
With the superficial notion,
I could pull apart the ocean
March on like a Roman,
And step inside your broken little head.
I was only half right,
You sealed every exit tight –
Kept out every ray of light
And fell in love with loneliness instead.
I told myself that this would be the plot.
I guess somewhere in that moment I forgot.

I was constantly in motion,
I was sarcasm and caution,
And you were an explosion
Of some foreign shore emotion.
I found a cause in you I could abide.
Once, we were just children;
Free from apprehension,
But you took off your training wheels,
Scraped your knees a few too many times.
I never had a doubt you could be home.
But you harboured enough doubt for us both.
