[Verse 1]
Violet silence kills the air
Here's you, here's me, but
There's nothing left
One roof, two separate rooms
In a multitude of, of issues
So we both walk in no one's house
But I've been so missed, you say
[Chorus]
I keep pacing, yeah I keep waiting
Looking for distractions
For ways to get out
So we could fake this or we could make it
Cause these are distractions
And they're wearing us down
[PostChorus]
So can we work it out?
Can we work it out?
Cause we both know it's getting old
Can we work it out?
Can we work it out?
Ooh
[Verse 2]
Baby stop and listen up, there's only so long
We can go on, put a show on
Like nothing's wrong
So the neighbours say, we look happy
But domestic bliss shouldn't feel like this
I been findin' ways to avoid this place
But we won't change if we stay the same
[Chorus]
I keep pacing, yeah I keep waiting
Looking for distractions
For ways to get out
So we could fake this or we could make it
Cause these are distractions
And they're wearing us down
[PostChorus]
So can we work it out?
Can we work it out?
Cause we both know it's getting old
Can we work it out?
Can we work it out?
Ooh
[Bridge]
Close my eyes, count down from ten
And when I'm done I start again
There's only so much I can
Take
[Chorus]
I keep pacing, yeah I keep waiting
Looking for distractions
For ways to get out
So we could fake this or we could make it
Cause these are distractions
And they're wearing us down
[PostChorus]
So can we work it out?
Can we work it out?
Cause we both know it's getting old
Can we work it out?
Can we work it out?
Ooh
