Unstuck

(album: Gulp! - 2022)

So I was sleeping when you got up
And you were sleeping when I got in
Oh, how can we be drifting apart
When we were never close to begin?

I-I-I don't know how to sleep with coins on my eyes, yeah

Like conversations heard through a phone
The filter sits there bone white and dry
Oh, you were always playing the room
And I was always playing for time

There is a part of me
That never goes away
And now that part has gone
It left so suddenly
I never heard it go
I never heard you leave
I am a sham
You are a shell
I am a slope
You are a hill
Oh, birds and bees and legs on leather
I'm unstuck when we're together

So I brushed all the dust from my tomb
My bones, they rattle white as my teeth
Sometimes what you fear never comes
And sometimes what you fear never leaves

I-I-I don't know how to... with coins on my eyes, yeah
No, I don't know how to sleep with coins on my eyes, yeah

There is a part of me
That never goes away
And now that part has gone
It left so suddenly
I never heard it go
I never heard you leave
I am a sham
You are a shell
I am a slope
You are a hill
Oh, birds and bees and legs on leather
I'm unstuck when we're together

So I was sleeping when you got up
Yeah I was sleeping when you got up
Yeah I was sleeping when you got up
Yeah I was sleeping when you got up

There is a part of me
That never goes away
And now that part has gone
It left so suddenly
I never heard it go
I never heard you leave
I am a sham
You are a shell
I am a slope
You are a hill

A bat, a ball, a rope, a chain
A marble bust in acid rain
A car, a cross, a pile of rocks
The putting on the taking off
I say it once and not again
A marble bust in acid rain
And I am unstuck
