Distinctly, I hear the cadences in her voice
An evening summer breeze through a dense melee of sirens
I live to see your smile, your caffeinated gaze
As our charming non-sequiturs fill an air of awkward silence
So let's revel in the platitudes that I voice so well
Your revolving door of sympathy, so eloquently phrased
The lava lamp through blurry vision, looks like a late-night traffic jam
As beams of light, they pass us by, brutally unfazed
And your palpitating heart, it calls to me
Resounding echoes of your trust and dignity, and
[Chorus]
I know I cannot help with my cold clichés
To see your sullen thoughts fall away
But oh, how sweet it is to hear you say
"You know, it's one of those better days"
Well, enamoured by the benefactions that you give to me
Soft vespers in the night, a sensation hard to find
Just don't forget simplicity and how healing silence can be
With subtle faith and confidence, you can always change your mind
Through your swollen sense of shame and misery
Awakening in cool sobriety, and
[Chorus]
I know I cannot help with my cold clichés
To see your sullen thoughts fall away
But oh, how sweet it is to hear you say
"You know, it's one of those better days"
So how much eye contact before it gets awkward?
How many more times can I say?
An impasse between lines of communication
Find another way
I know I cannot help with my cold clichés...
I know I cannot help with my cold clichés...
[Chorus]
I know I cannot help with my cold clichés
To see your sullen thoughts fall away
But oh, how sweet it is to hear you say
"You know, it's one of those better days"
"You know, it's one of those better days"
An evening summer breeze through a dense melee of sirens
I live to see your smile, your caffeinated gaze
As our charming non-sequiturs fill an air of awkward silence
So let's revel in the platitudes that I voice so well
Your revolving door of sympathy, so eloquently phrased
The lava lamp through blurry vision, looks like a late-night traffic jam
As beams of light, they pass us by, brutally unfazed
And your palpitating heart, it calls to me
Resounding echoes of your trust and dignity, and
[Chorus]
I know I cannot help with my cold clichés
To see your sullen thoughts fall away
But oh, how sweet it is to hear you say
"You know, it's one of those better days"
Well, enamoured by the benefactions that you give to me
Soft vespers in the night, a sensation hard to find
Just don't forget simplicity and how healing silence can be
With subtle faith and confidence, you can always change your mind
Through your swollen sense of shame and misery
Awakening in cool sobriety, and
[Chorus]
I know I cannot help with my cold clichés
To see your sullen thoughts fall away
But oh, how sweet it is to hear you say
"You know, it's one of those better days"
So how much eye contact before it gets awkward?
How many more times can I say?
An impasse between lines of communication
Find another way
I know I cannot help with my cold clichés...
I know I cannot help with my cold clichés...
[Chorus]
I know I cannot help with my cold clichés
To see your sullen thoughts fall away
But oh, how sweet it is to hear you say
"You know, it's one of those better days"
"You know, it's one of those better days"
