Ceilings

[Verse 1]
There was a sound the night after we were born
It flooded the air, and then it was ignored
He was the fur and she was a set of coloured teeth
Twenty two years slowly biting into me

[Chorus]
You’re brand new
Where the hell did you come from?
You said something to me then
When you came out of nowhere
You scared me to death

[Verse 2]
The creature that breathed and moved in my mother’s youth
Is burrowing deep into her sinew
My eyes were gripped beneath blankets and the cold of the night
Nervous loves and fears recorded in decaying light

[Chorus]
You’re brand new
Where the hell did you come from?
You said something to me then
When you came out of nowhere
You scared me to death

[Chorus]
You’re brand new
Where the hell did you come from?
You said something to me then
When you came out of nowhere
You scared me to death
