Every Day - Voxtrot

Every day I picture things falling down

Landscapes all tossed around

In cities, I start to drown

But when I stop to push the fear out of me

Come steady my shaking knees

And drag the roots out to sea

And it’s hard to be steeped in your gaze

You’re always drinking me, I have no place

To be awkward and silent

Spoil your tongue with my silence

My flavor ripens inside this

There is no love without trying

There is no easy way, when I

Crane my neck to kiss your head, I know

That there is something that I can rely on

And when I strain my thoughts to push this thread I sew

It’s some kind of future that I can be sure of

Oh, I’m just breathing air

Contracts on everything

Reluctant and measuring

The food that we choose to bring

But I can trace an invisible piece of string

Connects between you and me

Like symbols of property

Oh, when I recognize, cut from a cloth

Always solid and breathing

You and I retract like swans

Always advance and receding

Believe in something worth eating

Shared love is something like feeding

There is no trust without meaning

There is no easy way, when I

Crane my neck to kiss your head, I know

That there is something that I can rely on

And when I strain my thoughts to push this thread I sew

It’s some kind of future that I can be sure of

And I wonder why there is no choice in the things that we hear

We hear our lives inside these sounds

There’s nothing good on the radio

There’s never anything good on

There’s never anything good on

There’s nothing good on the radio

There’s never anything, so I stop to sing

And these things come rushing from behind

Life is changing so fast, and there’s nothing I can do to stop it

But when I crane my neck to kiss your head, I know

That there is something that I can rely on

And when I strain my thoughts to push this thread I sew

It’s some kind of future that I can be sure of

Because I love you, because I love you

Because I love you, because I love you
