Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Fits and starts
Clouds and ellipses
I fill silences with the dark
And I, I can take it
I wanna know the uncensored thoughts
Or maybe not
[Verse 2]
I know you
And your rhythm
When you took an extra beat
That rang true
Were you being honest and thought better of it?
I watched the cloud hesitate, then nothing
[Chorus]
Clouds with ellipses
They come and go and come and go and
Fade away
Clouds with ellipses
They come and go and come and go and
Fade away
[Verse 3]
For these moments
Nothing else matters
Life and doldrums and pain
We float free
Till the cloud bursts
Are you even real?
Is that what you started to tell me but couldn't?
[Chorus]
Clouds with ellipses
They come and go and come and go and
Fade away
Clouds with ellipses
They come and go and come and go
[Bridge]
Meet me here
Free and numinous
Soaring over the rain
We get to be our most beautiful versions
Until we come down
Someone else gets the real thing
And we get our dots and our clouds
[Chorus]
Clouds with ellipses
They come and go and come and go and
Fade away
Clouds with ellipses
They come and go and come and go and
Fade away
Clouds with ellipses
They come and go and come and go
