Doused

Never had you run so far
but you really gotta get away
you know it in the nighttime
running to it

Caught a rising star
but then you let it drop into the ocean
now the water’s running through it

Now you’ve gone so far
you really had to get away
you knew it in your lifetime
running to it

Acting like you’ve come so far
the bed you made yourself and this house and me
are all falling apart

Never thought you’d go so far

but you’re really gone and it’s been so long
I never really think about it

You made a beating heart
Whatever, now that amber light has faded
and it’s yours to commit to it

Act like it stops and starts
a gesture here and there
for me is one thing
but I felt it every time you blew it

Now you’ve gone too far
your urge to runaway is back
and we all know
