A song about contractual agreements and general malaise.
lyrics
Quiet in the dark room.
Something in the water burns.
Don’t blink or you’ll miss it.
Learn from your mistakes
and don’t forget her name.
But I am not a liar I’ve been all out
to drown in conversation while you fade out.
Maybe we’re just broken
and you don’t give a damn.
This thing is done if you walk out.
This thing is done if you walk away.
Make you what you’re asking.
Sign the line right here,
but please my children
don’t come all at once.
Locked it without the key,
locked it without any sense of heart.
In the dark,
terrified beyond all reason and control.
Something without the rest,
something without all its crucial parts.
Though we shared,
how I wish I’d never known you
in that tender way at all.
But I am not a liar I’ve been all out
to drown in conversation while you fade out.
Maybe we’re just broken
and you don’t give a damn.
This thing is done if you walk out.
This thing is done if you walk away.
This thing is done...
This thing is done...
This thing is done...
This thing is done if you walk away.
