Motion Sickness - Hands Like Houses

How could I miss you if never met you

If that road turned some other way and never looked back?

There’s a feeling, overwhelming, like I couldn’t belong

Without this point of contact;

everything would be wrong

Stop motion on the ceiling, skipped frames, and I’m forgetting the in-between

When the world is spinning and I am standing still,

When the world comes apart and I’m standing still, you flicker

If I never knew what I’d lost, you flicker

And I turn around and you’re gone?

You flicker

A moment lost, is not so eas’ly found

If that glance turned some other way and never looked back?

There’s a feeling, overwhelming, this is where I belong

This melody, inseparable from singing the song

I’m floating on the feeling, skipped beats and I’m forgetting the in-between

When the world is spinning and I am standing still

When the world comes apart and I’m standing still…

You flicker

If I never knew what I’ve lost (you flicker)

And I turn around, and you’re gone (you flicker)

If you turn left and I turn right

Would the curves of the earth

Bring our paths back to cross again

Would I trust fate

To bring back the tide

Or would I dive head first

To feel you on my skin

(You flicker)

If I never knew what I’ve lost (you flicker)

And I turn around, and you’re gone (you flicker)

When the world is spinning and I am standing still (you flicker)

When the world comes apart and I’m standing still (you flicker)
