Break The Rhythm

(album: Infinitely Tall - 2022)

Another 2 AM
At the same bar again
You tell me you're feeling blue
Then we talk about the news
It's the same

How do we break the rhythm we've been in lately?
I changed cities again, it doesn't change me
Hometowns are for leaving
No, you can't make me
Oh man down, another bell sounds
You got home spirit and you're way too loud

Another 2 AM
Don't know if Kansas ever ends (I hope it does)
In the backseat of the van
You drew a sketch of the house
So you could see it again

How do we break the rhythm we've been in lately?
Your god and your politics are driving me crazy
Hometowns are revealing
I see why you hate me
Oh man down, another bell sounds
I think I feel it kicking in right now

City sidewalks and silhouettes blur together
And longer are the hours between calls from friends
Every conversation uninspired
Why not let some wedge-shaped core of darkness deliver one to one's end?

Just break the rhythm
Just break it now
Just cut me open
And wash me out
I watched the bulldozer demolish the house
Just don't stop your loving
Don't stop it now, babe

Don't stop your loving, baby, to me
One drink I'm sorry, my ears are ringing
Don't stop your loving, baby, to me
I can't stand you, but baby don't leave me alone
Don't stop your loving, baby, to me
These walls have fallen, the house it haunts me
Don't stop your loving, baby, to me
I can't stand you, but baby don't leave me alone
