We used to spend all our time together on couches just a couple of introvert grouches now you're gone, I don't miss you at all Thermostat's set just the way that I like it no interruptions to my peace and quiet used all the hot water, no one to complain Nothing important happened today I didn't stop you and you didn't stay Nothing important happened today It's just the day that I lost you Popped all the popcorn and I don't have to share and I'll watch what I want, because you're not there Crank up the volume, I'm the only one home Threw your mug at the wall when you walked out this morning Coffee was cold, stain was already forming I used your Rush t-shirt to scrub it away Drowning, I am drowning, I can't find the air so I'll choke on my pride and pretend I don't care If I see you around, I'll say I'm glad we're through and I'll lie to our friends and say I'm over you Nothing important happened today You said you're sick of the games but that's so cliche Nothing important happened today It's just a day Nothing important happened today I kept my mouth shut as you walked away Nothing important happened today It's just the day that I lost you

Headlights carve out the path ahead Watch for the curve, the road twists and turns We're almost there Find a perfect clearing where we can finally clear the air Shapes in shadows scatter as we pass Radio's on, we're singing along, it's not our favorite song But we both know the words and that's enough Smoke hangs heavy like a question in the air You've got things to tell me, there are things I want to hear Let's unpack, we'll take it slow The night is long and deep Lay our cards out on the table Some secrets just won't keep Tell each other tales as tall as trees The firefly glow, warm, gold and mellow I'm listening Comets criss-cross constellations While we replay old conversations Treading carefully across uneven ground, just lean on me Radio's on, the volume's low, still not our favorite song Pretend we know the words and sing along Make up the bed, it's time to put uncertainty to sleep Cocoon me up in your arms tonight

Syzygy 02:29
You always have to drive It's always your way I might start a fight You make it easy I think our arguments are the realest part of us It's the only time I feel anything when I look at you I like a sharp sense of humor even when the joke is on me But I always seem to miss your punchlines I think we're stuck in syzygy You're too damn obstinate, and my charm feels so miscast Let's go another round, we can make this one last I can see you're tensing up, you sit silent and still But your buttons are irresistable and I move in for the kill I like a sharp sense of humor even when the joke is on me But I always seem to miss your punchlines I think we're stuck in syzygy You'd think after all this time, I'd have you figured out But I still don't really know you at all, not the way it counts I could say our stars are crossed, but that's not quite it It's more like we're miles apart, in the same decaying orbit You always have to drive
