What would we do without
These circles to dance 'round each other?
I think it's beyond us
This feels like mercury
Don't know where it's going to go
And somehow there's this
Underlying theme to these days
These days are unraveling me
I miss the fiction
Of what I thought this could be
Now, you're so tired that I can't sleep
And if I thought I could
Let go this string I would float from this loneliness
Fly from this need
But I'd miss the sound of your breath
When it's comforting
So underneath this roof, inside this house
Reluctant words so long forgotten now
Forgiven now
Now, I'm so tired, and you don't speak
Feels like we're just waiting for
The mercury to rise.
