someone took the love we left behind
I guess we didn't bury us deep enough, but we'll snatch the thief
someone shook all hope inside my mind
i guess i wasn't clean enough, let's catch the breeze

i can think of a thousand words to swallow
i can think of a thousand birds to follow
anything anything anything anything anything here
will we always remember the shots we took together
will we always surrender to kisses in bad weather
promises to keep mouths to feed

and wouldn't it be peaceful if we fall?
wouldn't it be cheerful if we stall?

finders are keepers
and lovers are cheaters
it's a long way between truth and its believers
but wouldn't it be better if we throw out the sheets

i can think of a thousand words to swallow
i can think of a thousand birds to follow
anything anything anything anything anything

someone took the love we left behind
he built his house in the sea and buried you and me
