The Calm Before (Radio Edit) Lyrics

A knock on the door says you're still where I thought you were

Two thousand and twenty AD

Written in cursive graffiti on signs on the street

The wrong application of proper technique

Is what makes you so goddamn unique

Drift my way

As I wish on that star and pray

It won't hurt when I call out your name

And no one responds

For shame, how drone

Like writing a symphony in monotone

The last I heard you were taking a trip

How I wish I could too but the last time I did

I woke up to three empty bottles of wine

And a migraine that grew as I opened my eyes

To the compound on lockdown

But somehow you still

Drift my way

As I wish on that star and pray

It won't hurt when I call out your name

And no one responds

For shame, how drone

Like writing a symphony in monotone

Like writing a symphony in monotone

The tall tale of the calm before the storm

I'll bail before I'm thrown overboard

That speck in the distance is you what a coincidence

After-all our intentions were the same

So drift my way

As I wish on that star and pray

It won't hurt when I call out your name

And no one responds

For shame, how drone

Like writing a symphony

So drift my way

As I wish on that star and pray

It won't hurt when I call out your name

And no one responds

For shame, how drone

Like writing a symphony in monotone

Like writing a symphony in monotone
