Perfectly out of Time

You chose to hide away, two feet in
Dissolved apart from us
Can't go moving on
Comes in tidal waves, slipping back
Holding what you can

Of past in the waiting
Of future recalled from another home
Where you could dance
As the saints were marching in

Show me how it started
Just as I'd lost you, perfectly out of time
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you

When the moon covers the sun
And turns red as warm blood
I'd have turned to you
Without fear of what's to come
Knowing that as the rest melts away
It would have felt like it always had
Resolved to oblivion

But you chose to hide away, two feet in
Dissolved in part for us
Can't go moving on
Comes in tired ways, turning back
As though decisions made
Before you were born
Before you were born
Before you were born
Before you were born

So tired of waiting to get back to where we already were
Where was I when we fell from them to us?
So show me how it started
Just as I'd lost you, perfectly out of time
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(You chose to hide)
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(You chose to hide)
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(In fear of what you'd say)
Lord knows I wanted to be in that number with you
(You chose to hide away)
