Surround Sound

We both know it lingers I feel it in the stillness Or else it wouldn't have happened this way I'm holding your fingers Candles and incense If I could, I'd ask you today Letting your guard down Watching TV in surround sound You can hear it bouncing off of the walls It's like that when I see you So loud & foolproof I'd keep on the captions and call

So loud, are you Hearing it now I can picture the feeling When we finally come around

We both know it feels good To have something to hold onto But good doesn't always have to mean right On one hand, we've been here On the other I know why we're back And it feels like I'm starting my life I think I'd fold under pressure If you were any other person But I'm finding myself filling all your space It's not something I got used to Not something I was allowed to And I'm filling mine with vignettes of our place

So loud, are you Listening now Can't you picture this healing If we talk about the sound 'Cause it's so loud, are your Knees buckling now Can I take you somewhere else We can drown every feeling out

I didn't think yours were the secrets I'd keep Didn't think I'd put you this high up on the list of best things That ever happened to me The air strokes my fingers Waving my hand through the current You're tearing down the turnpike with me We're back from your hometown You're home and I'm wheels down We're everything I hoped we would be
