Parables

[Verse 1]
Broken desk lamp lights
And freezing cold nights
You keep your distance from love
And your heart out of sight
Deciduous trees
Throwing leaves at your feet
You keep your heart in your pocket
With other things you don't need
Dance with the fire
But you never breathe the smoke
You've been making shadows
From the second you woke
The sun will hit your hair
But nothing touches your face
She probably speaks in parables
When she has something to say

[Chorus]
Probably speaks in parables
Prob-prob-probably parables
Prob-prob-probably parables
When she has something to say
Probably speaks in parables
Prob-prob-probably parables
Prob-prob-probably parables
When she has something to say

[Verse 2]
Washing machines
Can't keep a dirty mind clean
She sees their eyes on her
Like she's the missing piece
She walks in straight lines
Because she doesn't waste time
But you'll be walking in circles
When you see her pass by
Sometimes I see you
Engulfed in loneliness
Which doesn't make sense
If you think about it
Crystal eyes
Won't save you this time
She probably speaks in parables
I know you speak in lies

[Chorus]
Probably speaks in parables
Prob-prob-probably parables
Prob-prob-probably parables
I know you speak in lies
Probably speaks in parables
Prob-prob-probably parables
Prob-prob-probably parables
I know you speak in lies

[Outro]
Probably speaks in parables
Probably speaks in parables
Probably speaks in parables
Probably speaks in parables
Probably speaks in parables
