lyrics

Loving you in forward motion meant
Getting the wound and leaving it open
You tell me in words unspoken
A secret code, I’ll bleed til it’s broken

But the words come out in a different way
And you never say exactly what I want you to say
But when I look in your eyes, yeah, I cannot get past it
Love you automatic
I love you automatic

Loving you is all I know
The touch of your hand in the afterglow
It’s a long journey up, I can’t come back
I drowned in the bed, you slept in the bath

But the words come out in a different way
And you never say exactly what I want you to say
But when I look in your eyes, yeah, I cannot get past it
Love you automatic

Yeah I don’t want to feel like I’m hanging around, no
But I can’t hear if you never make a sound
No, I don’t want to feel like I’m letting you down, no
But I can’t hear if you never make a sound

But the words come out in a different way
And you never say exactly what I want you to say
But when I look in your eyes, yeah, I cannot get past it
Love you automatic
I love you automatic

I love that the guys' harmonies have more focus in this album; it's a very different balance than Expert In A Dying Field, but I like it! Kirin Martin
