Nothing's Ever Calm

from Cry Havoc EP by Ruiness

/

lyrics

One thing we can all agree upon is that the situation's grim
And you would give it all to taste the salty water flowing off her skin
You sit around inside all day and read the phone book like it was a psalm
The weather's been okay but in the end the truth is nothing's ever calm

Everyone, listen in
We're stuck inside this mission
And the ghosts of what’s supposed to be are tired and hopeless
There's too much sun and too much rain
You're smiling like a hurricane
I find myself drifting in and out of focus

It's out of hand, that much is clear
To anyone who gives it any thought
I've seen the dark behind your smile
I've seen the truth left on the vine to rot
I sat beside the river
With the future roaring toward me like a train
We're either onto something
Or we're soon to wind up circling the drain

Everyone, listen in
We're stuck inside this mission
And the ghosts of what’s supposed to be are tired and hopeless
There's too much sun and too much rain
You're smiling like a hurricane
I find myself drifting in and out of focus

Everyone, listen in
We’re stuck inside this mission

Out of focus
