The Way Sound Leaves a Room

For years it would settle there 'Til you called it out by name and feared Nothing but its death was worth your time And when you came to again You tore it down on a whim Always knew the body would win Alright, alright In a season's shift, your wheels had turned And you came to me in the afternoon Your beauty always took me by surprise In a spell of days, I pulled it through The thread of hope I clung onto Always knew the body would win Alright, alright Though you did not know it yet Apocalyptic mindset Like fleeting thoughts that met to say goodbye The way the sound leaves a room And leaves the remnants you cling to A stranger's elation in the night Alright, alright, alright, alright
