It's like we're waiting for the roof to blow
I'm a little bit high and I'm a little bit low you know
And all the outsiders have been sent home
There's no refuge here in the afterglow
I can feel it under my feet
It's the misplaced weight on the words we speak
And it's the earth breaking
And I want something more
Than whatever it is you came here for
You say that no one knows just what they want
But I do, I do
I want you
I need to get this anchor off my chest
Get a little exposed, little out of my depth you know
Cos when they say these things are for the best
I think not you leaving, not you left
And I can feel it under my skin
It's the misplaced weight of the words we sing
And it's the earth breaking, earth quaking
And if you cave in with that look on your face
And be the one thing I think I can rely on
Cos we spend too many hours awake
Trying make something at least we can rely on.
