lyrics

Swans like the cemetery lake
ironically they cant get away
from people asking them in their own way
"How can I be so free?"
We both get coffees but you're off caffeine
we both get doughnuts and feel guilty
we bond over our common vice that will one day stop our hearts

I've been working on my posture
and you're trying to lose some weight
it's taking longer than it should but we're trying not to say it
I'll stop playing you my new songs when you stop asking what they mean
and clouds roll on to bluer skies before taking shape to me

Our greatest accomplishment yet
hid at the table in the back
untroubled love and let them all scramble around
on the floor resting our heads
pure air don't come through these vents
too much sound to forget or to piece together now


I've been working on my posture
and you're trying to lose some weight
it's taking longer than it should but we're trying not to say it
I'll stop playing you my new songs when you stop asking what they mean
and clouds roll on to bluer skies before taking shape to me

Pink walls in a happy place
patched jeans with a smiley face
you snuck in with a cheese plate could have been a scallop shell
You've never tried to change my mind
it's just small bits of resign
we'll make it to our hilltop home too snowy to surmount

I've been working on my posture
and you're trying to lose some weight
it's taking longer than it should but we're trying not to say it
I'll stop playing you my new songs when you stop asking what they mean
and clouds roll on to bluer skies before taking shape to me
