Lyrics

Your mother did you good
You listen like you should
but your politic's unusual this time
It's like nobody's home
You think on your own time,
and you justify the outcome to yourself

Between your silent hours
I go spinning 'round

It's the matter of all your confidence fading
It's the matter of all your confidence fading out...

You're pulling all the shades
And there's darkness in the day
That you find your life amusing's not ok
But you'd never know
if nobody told you
You'd never know and no one'd ever tell

Between your silent hours
I go spinning 'round

It's the matter of all your confidence fading
It's the matter of all your confidence fading out...

Meet me at the corner
and we'll drive down to the shore
I'll get us far away from home
We could wait a lifetime
for the tide to turn this storm
or we could drive to some place warm...

They echo in your head
the things you should have told me
A million words entangled in your mind

Are you sinking in?
Did you fall in line?
Every silent hour
Sends me spinning 'round

It's the matter of all your confidence fading
It's the matter of all your confidence fading out...
