it’s been smoking in the back room
comin’ on a couple of months now
been trying not to look at it but the wall’s coming down
it’s been pacing on the front steps
trying to get into an empty apartment
it used to be our home but now it’s a ghost town
if it’s going up i know it’s coming down
i’m reading that room
and checking the signs that say it’s fine
and still i’m bracing for impact every time
it’s been coming quick
our table with no place to sit
and maybe we don‘t always need to feel so sick
it’s been hitting hard
we’re dodging knockouts in the dark
and maybe it doesn’t always need to feel so heavy
i’m reading that room
and checking the signs that say it’s fine
and still i’m bracing for impact every time
when it’s structurally sound i’m feeling around
lookin’ for cracks and somehow
bracing for impact even now
if it’s going up i know it’s coming…
down
except there‘s no bottom now
and even when it’s up the high is never high enough
