lyrics
You belong
On the far side of the mountains
In the gold
On the line of the horizon
You belong
In a place where no one goes.
Where no one goes
You belong
In an unfinished painting
Wrapped in plastic
Locked in a closet
You belong
In a place where no one goes.
Where no one goes
Drawing you in constellations
Scorched in the dirt of a cornfield
Pushing the phone into its cradle again
Again and again
And I'll never win
But neither will you.
Every look a domino and every sigh in stereo and
Maybes dress as hidden yesses every time you don't say no and
Anything's obsession when you can't quit cold and
Everything is muzak when your life's on hold now I
Stare at the ceiling and try to tune in
To echoes of something that won't come again
This is where you belong:
Sentenced to one night as me
You belong
On the floor in the corner
Reading this
Off an old sheet of paper
You belong
In a place where no one goes.
Where no one goes
Writing our names in the window steam
Measuring time in creamers and coffee rings
Slamming the door, getting on with our lives again
Again and again
And I'll never win
But neither will you.
On the far side of the mountains
In the gold
On the line of the horizon
You belong
In a place where no one goes.
Where no one goes
You belong
In an unfinished painting
Wrapped in plastic
Locked in a closet
You belong
In a place where no one goes.
Where no one goes
Drawing you in constellations
Scorched in the dirt of a cornfield
Pushing the phone into its cradle again
Again and again
And I'll never win
But neither will you.
Every look a domino and every sigh in stereo and
Maybes dress as hidden yesses every time you don't say no and
Anything's obsession when you can't quit cold and
Everything is muzak when your life's on hold now I
Stare at the ceiling and try to tune in
To echoes of something that won't come again
This is where you belong:
Sentenced to one night as me
You belong
On the floor in the corner
Reading this
Off an old sheet of paper
You belong
In a place where no one goes.
Where no one goes
Writing our names in the window steam
Measuring time in creamers and coffee rings
Slamming the door, getting on with our lives again
Again and again
And I'll never win
But neither will you.
