[Verse 1]
Headlights race towards the corner of the dining room
And half illuminate a face before they disappear
You breathe in forty years of failing to describe a feeling
I breathe out smoke against a window
Trace the letters in your name
[Pre-Chorus]
Our letters sound the same
Full of all our changing
That isn't change at all
All straight lines circle sometime
[Verse 2]
You said, "Somewhere, there's a box full of replacement parts
To all the tenderness we've broken or let rust away."
Somewhere, sympathy is more than just a way of leaving
Somewhere, someone says, "I'm sorry."
Someone's making plans to stay
[Pre-Chorus]
So tell me it's okay
Tell me anything
Or show me there's a pull
Unassailable
Headlights race towards the corner of the dining room

Full of all our changing
That isn't change at all
All straight lines circle sometime

So tell me it's okay
