Turn It Down

Lyrics

There was nothing you could say to me That would calm me down and put my mind to rest Convince me things would get better So I would lay in my bed all night While my heart was typing letters in my chest With more words than I could remember I'll turn it down, turn it down! 'Til there's an answer I'll turn it down, turn it down! 'Til there's an answer With your father in the factory And your mother making medicine for ghosts A river flows into itself You're blowing kisses out of sympathy But you'll remember we weren't even all that close A river frozen to itself I'll turn it down, turn it down! 'Til there's an answer 'Til there's an answer The graffiti on the overpass Told a story about things that don't come true And we drove by in relative silence And you were always talking way too fast And you said that was just something that you do You talk fast when you're on an island But when you mutter underneath your breath I'd say, "would you say that one more time for me?" And you'd say, "it isn't anything Anything worth mentioning Anything worth repeating" I'll turn it down, turn it down! 'Til there's an answer I'll turn it down, turn it down! 'Til there's an answer
