Silent Treatment

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Dome light like an insect, popping off a spark Even with the open door, I still feel like I'm in the dark My head's full of static, my jaw's getting sore Punctuate the silence with another slammed door [Chorus] And that's when I heard the signal change Another couple minutes and we're out of its range And we're driving in silence, pretending nothing's changed [Verse 2] The sound of the engine is just another thought While I drifted off the road and went back to where I left off How far can we get on just a couple drops of gas? How did it get here, and how will I survive the crash? [Chorus] And that's when I heard the signal change Another couple minutes and we're out of its range And we're driving in silence, pretending nothing's changed [Post-Chorus] Pretending nothing has changed Pretending nothing has changed Pretending nothing has changed [Verse 3] Double movements met with star-spangled eyes Dropping out of orbit, I wish to found a compromise My face like a jigsaw, the windshield cracked apart Like the lines on my hand for the map of a broken heart [Chorus] And that's when I heard the signal change Another couple minutes and we're out of its range And we're sitting here in silence, 'cause nothing's changed We're sitting here in silence like nothing's changed [Bridge] In the rear-view mirror, I saw your stare You were pulling back in your reclining chair And "we're back on the road" isn't going anywhere
