Lyrics All Things Ordinary - The Anniversary

All Things Ordinary

I’ve seen those eyes
I’ve watched them close at night
And you breathe in
And you breathe out again
Sister’s coming over and I’m afraid to tell her
Secrets that I know
Painting without colors tends to make it better
It bleaches out the world
Was it the end
The end that kept you up till the morning?
Was it the boy
The boy who stole your heart?
Summer goes on and then dies quick without much warning
All things ordinary
Will you stay near me now?
Don’t leave this town until we’ve figured out
Between the two of us, we’re strong enough
I feel that in your touch
Full from the dinner, but feeling somewhat thinner
Aching in the chest
Kids behind the windows, calling out the answers
To questions never asked
I’ve seen those eyes
I’ve watched them close at night
And what clean comes in
Always comes out again
