(mmmmm) Writing lines on a page that I won't send
Too much weight on how we pretend
Loyalty isn't a badge you just wear
It's staying quiet when the room wants to tear
They misread the silence as a lack of heart
But holding back is where the real works start
It's the long way home
Underneath the quiet dome
Choosing what to hold and what to let go
(ooh) Staying steady in the slow
Two a.m. is the only time that feels clean Away from the
screen and the intermediate scene
Discipline is cold but it keeps me awake
Better to bend than to let the core break
They want the spark but they dread the fire
I built a wall out of quiet desire
And the weight of the name that they give you
Is nothing to the truth that you live through (ahhhh)
It's the long way home
Underneath the quiet dome
Choosing what to hold and what to let go (ooh)
Staying steady in the slow
Just a notebook on the floor
Closing up the final door (hummmm)
