歌詞

You kept your shoes on

I kept the door shut

Cup rings on the table

Like a map of the rough cut

There’s a hum in the hallway

Under our thin lie

We sit very still now

Like we can outwait time

Don’t look at the ceiling

Don’t ask what it means

The room has a heartbeat

Beneath all the seams

You cough at the silence

I stare at the stain

We both know the answer

We just say it again

Sirens under the floor

We hear them, we ignore

Sirens under the floor

And we won’t say more

Sirens under the floor

(Under the floor)

Sirens under the floor

We won’t say more

Your keys in the bowl now

My coat on the chair

Same little catastrophe

We both call “somewhere”

The wall keeps on breathing

The pipes keep their clue

And every small shadow

Points back out to you

Don’t look at the ceiling

Don’t ask what it means

The room has a heartbeat

Beneath all the seams

You laugh like it’s nothing

I swallow the blame

Two people pretending

They heard just the same

Sirens under the floor

We hear them, we ignore

Sirens under the floor

And we won’t say more

Sirens under the floor

(Under the floor)

Sirens under the floor

We won’t say more

If the knock comes later

Let it find the frame

If they ask our names, love

We’ll both sound the same

But your eyes keep flashing

Mine keep looking down

Like the whole damn warning

Is buried in the ground

Sirens under the floor

We hear them, we ignore

Sirens under the floor

And we won’t say more

Sirens under the floor

(Under the floor)

Sirens under the floor

We won’t say more
