Zeros & Ceilings Songtext
von devices

Drawn to this
Can you recount that sinking feeling
I never knew such shame

Could sour that sweetness that I saw
And you swore
Would never leave you

With your back to the door and eyes score
Zeros and ceilings
You meant to say you were leaving

Oh tell me you want to stay
Shame shame shame

The way we understand
An opinion
Phrased as an open suggestion
That questions all relations
Is not the way you understand
A secret not spoken
Whispered or typed but not yet mentioned


Better to move or lock from display
Shame shame shame

That was the way that it was done
That was the way that it was done
Testing the response with a secret action
Dancing all night with your back to me

That was the way that it was done
That was the way that it was done
Holding that space and hoping
Nervous energy with your back to me

Back to me and I swore
To pedal as fast as a downward spiral
Enjoy my life as much as I′m mentioned
Pretend we feel the same

Zeros and ceilings
There's nothing between them
Listen to me close as I hold your attention


You said I lost my voice
When they looked at me
I said I found my voice
When they looked at me
You said I lost my voice
When they looked at me
Shame shame shame

You said I lost my voice
When they looked at me
I said I found my voice
When they looked at me
You said I lost my voice
When they looked at me
Shame shame shame
