lyrics

Lately I've been measuring
In space and relativity
The people and the faces around my house

I am the drug free light of your train ride
You are the acid trip of my sunrise
And its the space caught in between that freaks me out

The gaps between pedestrians
Waiting for the lights to change
Relative to how much time we have

The time it takes to fall apart
And accidentally break your heart
Measured between your driveway and your door

I lie awake
Counting from one to four
Under my breath
Just in case
Someone comes to check if I
Am awake

Its a matter of keeping consistency
Remembering to breathe
I wore a hole in my head whilst sleeping on the floor

In terms of maximising efficiency
Its never been hard to leave
I wore a hole in my head whilst searching for your door

The gaps between your empty hands
Reminding me of how this began
Reflected in imperfections on the floor

The silence that only water brings
A bag of all your favourite things
gone as if they were never here at all
