The Sound Of Coming Down

Quit hiding that you're trying to get close to me
 i believe it's the one thing you said without smiling
 it's dubious or it's cruel
 i'm losing my homemade cool
 are you fueling the loose ends?
 are you cooling your jets?
 you hide in my bed and i'm hiding in my bed
 i can't face the cold, grey cold
 you can't play nursemaid and be the crazy patient
 hey, you know nobody's chasing us
 you know nobody's chasing us
 you know nobody's chasing us
 this is the honest sound of coming down
 press your lips against the cool glass of my face
 bear down on the lost art of having skin
 one false move came too late
 to save your favorite place from the silent sin
 are you needling me for not knowing the date?
 can you see me better for all this finger-tracing?
 at least we have blankets in our cage
 the last time you remembered to put out your fire you said
 hey, you know nobody's chasing us
 you know nobody's chasing us
 you know nobody's chasing us
 this is the honest sound of coming down
 she said hey, you know nobody's chasing us
 you know nobody's chasing us
 you know nobody's chasing us
 this is the honest sound
 hey, you know nobody's chasing us
 you know nobody's chasing us
 you know nobody's chasing us
 this is the honest sound of coming down
