Sputter

Wake up try on your new disguise
Would they recognise you anyway
Would they

Dead leaves lie down beneath your feet
As you step into the street and
Notice the distance between the hearts and homes
But still you know it's alright

You're not looking back this time
You know it's alright
You're stepping on the cracks and you feel fine

Don't waste your breath
You wouldn't want this anyway
And if you did, I think I'd let you
Talk this to death, or in circles like we're aeroplanes
But all along I knew that we would sputter out
We would sputter

Outside construction workers pour
A brand new basement floor
But then the ground starts shaking
Fault lines to your own front door
I looked at this and thought of you
And all that is and isn't true
And with the strength left in me
Walked on while the walls came down
It's alright

You're not looking back this time
You know it's alright
I'm stepping on the cracks and I feel fine

Don't waste your breath
You wouldn't want this anyway
And if you did, I think I'd let you
Talk this to death, or in circles like we're aeroplanes
But all along I knew that we would sputter out
We would sputter

We would sputter...
We would sputter...
We would sputter out...
We would sputter out

Don't waste your breath
You wouldn't want this anyway
And if you did, I think I'd let you
Talk this to death, or in circles like we're aeroplanes
But all along I knew that we would sputter out. (We would sputter)
But all along I knew that we would sputter out. (We would sputter)
But all along I knew that we would sputter out
We would sputter
We would sputter down
