Lyrics Night Signs - The Ophelias

Night Signs

I want so badly to whisper to you
Crawl inside and live where you live
How often do you cry?
I can see the reasons if I look closely
I’m too lonely to sleep
Death has known me for decades
It’s something that we knew
Going into a life, it would not continue
You take me to the same place each time
We walk with our hands up, night signs
You smile at the full moon, nice try
You know what you’re doing and you know I’m right
You mean nothing to me
I wish that I could really mean it
Surreptitiously
I would give you my handouts
Be a poet and breathe
Stand in line with the people that broke you
Arms are guiding my mind
Back down to an old black line
You take me to the same place each time
We walk with our hands up, night signs
You smile at the full moon, nice try
You know what you’re doing and you know I’m right
You take me to the same place each time
We walk with our hands up, night signs
You smile at the full moon, nice try
You know what you’re doing and you know I’m right
