State Of Things

Matt Simons, Ian Keaggy, Brett McLaughlin - 2016 / From 'Catch & Release'

 

We don’t talk

No confrontation at all

Been building tension up high like a wall

So that explains the state of things

 

We still touch

Use making love like a crutch

I feel your heart barely beating for us

Yeah that explains the state of things

 

How many tears can we hold until somebody blinks

And how many holes can we put in this boat till it sinks, till it sinks

We can try to ignore it just comes back for more

It won’t go away, go away

So tell me how long we can both carry on in this state

State of things

 

We got stuck

This faded love’s not enough

With no direction we’re straight out of luck

Yeah that explains the state of things

 

How many tears can we hold until somebody blinks

How many holes can we put in this boat till it sinks, till it sinks

We can try to ignore it just comes back for more

It won’t go away, go away

So tell me how long we can both carry on in this state

State of things

 

Alone in the night though you’re still by my side

Nobody’s wrong but I know this ain’t right

 

So tell me how many tears can we hold until somebody b

links

And tell me how many holes can we put in this boat till

it sinks, till it sinks

We can try to ignore it just comes back for more

It won’t go away, go away

So tell me how long we can both carry on in this state

State of things
