Lyrics

Midnight below the tree
The loneliness of hide and seek
And I have counted down and uncupped my eyes
And I have memorized every place my friends could hide
Listen for the heartbeat, the breath
The whisper and the broken branch
Midnight in theater B
I calm myself and follow my feet
And I kick this empty can down the road
It's useless to fight against the earth's cruel slope
And they're listening to the echo, the clang
The clamor of a broken man
[Instrumental]
Reach for me
Even as I run away
And I will dodge and feint
It's just how the game is played
Now I know where you hide
When you're caught in an awkward lie
Blame it on some change in me
And elevate yourself with fortune cookie speak
But the camouflage is incomplete
I see you, but you don't see me
Reach for me
Even as I walk away
And I will dodge and feint
It's just how the game is played
Did I drop my guard to something terrible?
A black hole in a lab
Summoned like the devil to corrupt me
Or am I just slippery?
Will you reach for me?
Even as I walk away?
I've been losing sleep
Keeping up this pace
Will you reach for me?
Even as I run away?
I will dodge and feint
It's just how the game is played
