The Meter Runs (2022 Remaster) Lyrics

Reflections in the soft, green pond

The happy face suddenly drowned

One bird left after one flew away

A shelter for complexity

Anger runs hand in hand with warmth

Denying matters any chance to better

I don't want to fake it but you see I'm breaking apart

The Meter Runs no time to park my heart

If I leave you someone will take my space

That I can't face

I want to chance it but now you are ready to go

We've both played games falling like dominoes

Appearing graceful as we tumble down

Not to fall again

We only have so much time left

This bitterness has got to end

Let's take a drive and just ad lib the rest

You're name just saturates my room

I cannot throw away these thoughts

A tattoo of your silhouette in my chest

I don't want to fake it but you see I'm breaking apart

The Meter Runs no time to park my heart

If I leave you someone will take my space

That I can't face

I want to chance it but now you are ready to go

We've both played games falling like dominoes

Appearing graceful as we tumble down

Not to fall again

I don't want to fake it but you see I'm breaking apart

The Meter Runs no time to park my heart

If I leave you someone will take my space

That I can't face

I want to chance it but now you are ready to go

We've both played games falling like dominoes

Appearing graceful as we tumble down

Not to fall again
