lyrics

We're not gonna talk when we get to the car
Nothing to say, nothing to dread
I already know that you're gonna walk
So I'm just left chasing a thread
Down the rabbit hole, to the end of the string
No way I'm gonna do that

I drank from your well, it was bitter and warm
It reminded me of spaces I'd tread
A common refrain might rise from my lips
Don't want to be stuck watching my head
Your best intervention is the wringing of hands
In tough times like these, got no time for that

In these times of tribulation, it's so hard to make sense
It's like the whole world lives on the other side of the fence
If it's too hard to listen, then it's too hard to know
I find that silence is the hardest way to grow
Watching my head
