LYRICS

Acrid; the smell of burning rubber
Is a daily feature
When I throw myself into reverse
Check out of my surroundings
Backing up so blindly
My back to the universe

Like a ship out of commission
Like an arrow always missing
I’m always missing

I’m trying to lie like a pro
And I know
It looks easy from the outside
But it’s hard to hold your brow
Just so, enough to show
“I’ve got other places to go tonight”

Like a record slowly twisting
Like an arrow always missing
I’m always whistling by

But it’s you, it’s you
I wanna run into you
I wanna run into
Like a wind blowing in through your cold room
I will get the door on the way through

Tragic; the messages I send
My mind post-midnight
Are showing seen but no reply
So I mash the keys a million times
For a million years and
Maybe by chance I’ll say it right

Closing in on your middle distance
Filling quivers with ammunition
But I’m always missing

You, You
I wanna run into you
I wanna run into

Like a light burning bright in your hard heart
I won’t make a sound when I go dark

Can you see me through
Do you hear me scratching at the outlines of you?
I feel your heartbeat from a mile away
(Like it knows what I’m trying to say)
And I’m trying to say (I’m trying to say)
I’m trying to say (I’m trying to say)
It’s you, you
I wanna run into you
I wanna run into you
I wanna run into you
I wanna run into you
You
I wanna run into you
I wanna run into you
