Subtle Lyrics

In pictures of faces

They wear as a basis

To cover that feelings have changed

The lightning subsided

The fires ignited

And left uncontained

And it was subtle

The way they doubled up until they cancelled out

And they danced around

A sense of trouble

Another couple down on luck who chance it out

Do you have the answer now?

They hold on to anything they can just to keep it alive

They won't just admit when maybe what they have should not survive

Another example

They thought they could handle

And drifting to further mistakes

When suddenly loving

Decayed into nothing

Remaining to say

And it was subtle

The way they doubled up until they cancelled out

And they danced around

A sense of trouble

Another couple down on luck who chance it out

Do you have the answer now?

They hold on to anything they can just to keep it alive

They won't just admit when maybe what they have should not survive

Close the shutter

Save each other

Say goodbye
