Lyrics Everything's a Ceiling - Death Cab for Cutie, Benjamin Gibbard, Christopher Walla

Everything's a Ceiling

Way way down in a hole, there’s no feeling
Cause when you’re so far beneath the floor, everything’s a ceiling
We dug it down as deep as we could just like we planned it
But when you climbed out you pulled the ladder and it left me stranded
So what am I supposed to do?
I’m calling out to you
But you’re miles away, it’s true
Digging with someone new
So far down in this hole, there’s little daylight
I feel the shards of the midday sun and then it’s black as midnight
The only stars I see in the sky, they don’t move me
Cause they’ve all been dead for millions of years, they’re just light diffusing
And the constellations move and the brightest point is full
But every telescope you see, was pointed only at you
And I’ve got nowhere to go except further below
So I keep digging
And it gets darker everyday
But I see no other way than just committing
And if the earth is as round as they say
Then I won’t find another place
From where I break back through
It’s farther away from you
It’s farther away from you
So what am I supposed to do?
I’m calling out to you
But you’re miles away, it’s true
Digging with someone new
So what am I supposed to do?
I’m calling out to you
But you’re miles away, it’s true
Digging with someone new
Digging with someone new
Digging with someone new
