Select language to translate this lyric
She goes to, bed early, and he goes to bed late,
And itâs been that way for weeks now
But she aint tired and heâs a dead weight
The roomâs cold as he stares the screen down
The bedâs warm so she kicks her feet out
Through the wall she can hear the ads break
Sheâs half awake
And heâs half asleep
And she floats through the depths of his head space.
And the bed frame sings out
As he lies, she pretends sheâs asleep
He pretends he believes her
He can tell by the way that she breaths that she isnât
So they lie in the darkness,
Sad thoughts fill the air like birthday balloons
As they run away to separate dreams now
Back to back, ten paces at noon.
And she donât know that he knows itâs over,
And he donât know that she knows itâs over,
They donât fight much
Tongue full of bite marks
Eyeâs full of tired
Smiles stay drawn on
Forlorn figures pass in the hallway
No words exchanged, and no foreplay
No further games, it has all changed
And the floor stays, made out of egg shells
Every questionâs a riddle
Once they have met in the middle, they camp by the edge now.
Thereâs a river in-between them
And itâs picking up speed as it deepens
They donât know where it will sweep them
Afraid to know, and they donât wanna get their feet wet,
So they keep the same secret
They donât know the other has the same one too
Only free when theyâre dreaming
Back to back, ten paces at noon
Draw your line in the sand
Thereâs no right side to stand
Tell your lies, hide your plans
Thereâs no right side to stand
And she donât know that he knows itâs over,
And he donât know that she knows itâs over,
And now that space in-between seems so far,
So far
One little word it could bring their closure,
âOverâ
