one of two - settle lyrics
your second wind gets pulled out your throat as the perfume seeps in
rose+scented fumes and rose+covered windows and the house of your dreams
i sit and watch from the shade on the porch that i never will build
your back turned and our last conversation’s like a knot between my shoulders, buried to the hilt
and we settle
our disputes and differences and minds
and we settle
one more time
your first look around tells me everything that i need to know
the sunlight’s wrong, the curtains are drawn, well if you don’t want to stay, why don’t you just go?
i stand there and look at you on the far side of the doorless doorway
as the floorboards creak under your busy feet and you pretend to hug me, then break away
yeah, we settle
our affairs and papers and pains
and we settle
once again
’cause you need me there
and i’ve got nowhere but here
the greater the distance, the greater the journey
but we don’t want to travel anywhere
third time’s a charm and fourth time’s a charm all over again
a short tint of flame, a short tinge of sunlight and still we complain to ourselves
i turn my back to stare at what’s there, though i don’t really care
your breath on my neck and your hand on my shoulder and we smile and we share
and we settle
through quiet panic and sheer force of will
and we settle
still
