Part II: Denial & Anger

from Through Acts of God and Idiocy by Jack Holmes

/

lyrics

We’re acting like kids acting like adults, swinging our feet staring at the ground
and we can both see how pathetic this is,
to watch ourselves as we run circles, afraid to trip and fall

Another train ride, with a stomach full of knots and a lack of incite
I can’t fucking stand not knowing what you’re thinking, as I’m running out of breath
and so if you ever need me, you always know where you can find me
I’ll paint our names on a padlock and clip it to the Meteor Street Bridge

And Dogs can’t look up because Big Al says so
it seems stupid not to give this a go
this situation’s tightened its grip on our throats
but I’m not out of breath just yet

And I would never hesitate to wish this was something different
but I would never wish away everything you’ve been given
I’d give you every choice I have, every angle I can turn
because the romance in being free isn’t half what it is when you’re alone
