As I'm talking my words slip to the floor
and they crawl through your legs and slide under the back door
rendering me freakish and dazed
Well here I am I don't know how to say this
The only thing I know is awkward silence
Your eyelids close when you're around me to shut me out
So I'll go walking through the streets until my heels bleed
and I'll sing out my song in case the birds wish to sing along
And I'll dig a tunnel to the center of the universe
Well here I am I don't know how to say this
The only thing I know is awkward silence
Your eyelids close when you're around me to shut me out
I'll make my way across the frozen sea, beyond the blank horizon,
when I can forget "you and me" and get a decent night's sleep
Well here I am I don't know how to say this
The only thing I know is awkward silence
Your eyelids close when you're around me to shut me out
Don't shut me out
