lyrics

Strolling the sidewalks
We never watch where we walk
So we collided truly blindsided

A moment of chance or
A serendipitous bump
It’s hard not to read too much into what you want

Less out of habit
And more to the back than the front
Spiraling upwards is sure and then unsure

Live on the ground floor
That way you’ll never jump
The future is up to what we get up to

I could be what you wanted
You could be what I need
But we’ll never know
Cause we don’t let ourselves get too close to anything
×2

If I’m off your radar
And you’re off my whole damn map
Then how do we find us?
Who will remind us?

It always gets later
And you always have to drive back
What’s happens tomorrow
Is regrets and sorrow

Chorus

Carry a white flag
That way i’ll know what is what
Cause misunderstandings reek of bad landings

Your cheeks really show off
And you stutter more when you're drunk
Stammering through this
There’s never a witness

I’m all indecision
Too comfortable in my spot
Dying for action
A basic connection


I had the lighter
You went and bought a new pack
And just for tonight
You can do it inside

Chorus
