Blue Tape & Coffee Cups (TOP) v4

Title: Blue Tape & Coffee Cups (Verse 1) The morning paper’s sitting on the stoop We’re caught inside a never-ending loop You’re pouring coffee in a chipped ceramic mug Acting like a stranger on a bedroom rug We talk about the weather just to pass the time Like every word we're saying isn't out of line (Chorus) And the pavement’s cracking underneath our feet We’re running circles down a quiet street Holding onto pieces of a fading spark Just two silhouettes fading in the park Oh, let the silence say what we won’t speak We’ve been living on the edge for weeks (Verse 2) You left your jacket hanging on the kitchen chair I catch your scent of winter in the heavy air We built a fortress out of cardboard boxes stacked Waiting for a moment that is never coming back The clock is ticking louder than it did before As we stand on opposite sides of the door (Chorus) And the pavement’s cracking underneath our feet We’re running circles down a quiet street Holding onto pieces of a fading spark Just two silhouettes fading in the park Oh, let the silence say what we won’t speak We’ve been living on the edge for weeks (Bridge) And maybe someday down a different lane We’ll look back on this and laugh at all the pain Or maybe we’ll just turn and walk away With nothing left of yesterday (Chorus) And the pavement’s cracking underneath our feet We’re running circles down a quiet street Holding onto pieces of a fading spark Just two silhouettes fading in the park Oh, let the silence say what we won’t speak We’ve been living on the edge for weeks (Outro) Just a chipped ceramic mug... A jacket on the chair. Fading in the park. Nothing left there.
