Sedimentary

We were kissing on the brink of a natural disaster
Is this what it takes to feel anything, anymore?
You only knew me in the hour that you thought you were dying
I found you dreamier than ever
For a moment

But moments pass and you will never see me cry
I will not wipe away your tears or hold you close to mine
And any lingering thoughts will drift into the sky
And be gone

Ooh yeah, did you feel that, babe?
That earthquake, hurricane
We're soaking wet but I must ask, do you even feel it?
Sediment, sedimentary; the feelings are buried deep
They're tangled like a vine, violins, I hear them play
Sad, sad music all through the night
Playing sad, somber music, all day and night

As moments pass they trickle down our aging spines
Why you lookin' for a place you know you'll never find?
If you could sit still for a minute, you may realize
That we're all in this together

Ooh yeah, did you hear that, babe?
Ringing through your mind, like a high-speed bullet train
Pouring like the rain in Manila, late July
Don't bother getting dry
Your purpose is erratic
You've been choking on time's finger
You've been sucking on time's finger
