I promised to stay quiet
You promised not to leave
I've been chewing on the silence
You've been dressing us in leaves
One day they'll come to get us
They'll pack up all our things
Shoeboxes and sandpaper
Packages and string
I didn't know
That you were really scared of me
I didn't know
That you were really scared of me
But I guess that makes sense, you should be
You should be
You asked if I was hungry
I said I'd lost my taste
You said, This is the best part
As you cleared another plate
I didn't know
That you were really scared of me
I didn't know
That you were really scared of me
But I guess that makes sense, you should be
You should be
The room just keeps spinning and that wine just won't stop spilling
You said, That's just the way it goes, that's just the way it goes
That damn clock just keeps ticking, we're the last ones to leave
You said, That's just the way it goes, that's just the way it goes
I didn't know
That you were really scared of me
I didn't know
That you were really scared of me
But I guess that makes sense, you should be
You should be
