Shimmering Veins

Your coffee's getting cold on the table

You watch the dust motes drift in the sun

And I want to tell you

but I am not able

To find where the words have begun

Maybe we just need a moment

Maybe the quiet is fine

Oh,

let the light leak in

Where the old walls are thin

We don't have to keep it all inside

We can let the tide subside (ooh-ooh)

We map the floorboards by how they creak

We know the places we should skip

It's a delicate language we speak

Written on the edge of your lip

Oh,

let the light leak in

Where the old walls are thin

We don't have to keep it all inside

We can let the tide subside (ooh-ooh)

Let it subside... (mmmmm)
