Jer Coons - Ceiling lyrics

rate me

The drag of the cigarette smoke

concealed the words that we both spoke when

we were hiding, we were just lying

You watched as I covered the flame

revealed the spark and played that game

where we both pretend that distance doesn't strain

And I never thought that I would see you leaving

too many imperfections on my ceiling

and you know you never can prevent this feeling

cause time goes by and people change

the impetus and its remains

are evidence nothing remains the same

How many days till you stop calling

how many nights till I stop caring

how many months until you feel you can't ignore

How many words to conversations

calculated speech equation with no relation

I don't know you anymore

And I never thought that I would see you leaving

too many imperfections on my ceiling

and you know you never can prevent this feeling

cause time goes by and people change

the impetus and its remains

are evidence nothing remains the same

I could say time after time

that I could drop this on a dime

and when I leave I will be fine

I could say time after time

that I could drop this on a dime

and when I leave I will be fine

but it might be another line

And I never thought that I would see you leaving

too many imperfections on my ceiling

and you know you never can prevent this feeling

cause time goes by and people change

the impetus and its remains

are evidence nothing remains the
