You were so strung out Lying on the couch And there was nothing to talk about So I asked about your friend Oh, yes I did I didn't know that it was gonna offend Until you yelled in my face Broke my favorite vase I guess it's a normal fucking day I got no energy left To clean up your mess I said "I love you babe, you're really the best" "Rest" Our Lady of Perpetual Motion helps me shake my doubt And I know that there will not be a way out I keep going so I can tell myself I was more devout With heaven waiting, why look for a way out? Way out You would not shut up Woke the neighbors up They weren't very happy with us And then you shouted some more We got a strange rapport They're banging on the walls, the door, the ceiling, and floor And someone called the cops And I almost thought "Y'know, maybe this won't work after all" I think I'm losing my mind But I'll be alright This only happens almost every night Right? But Our Lady of Perpetual Motion helps me shake my doubt And I know that there will not be a way out Already I can feel the pressure begin to fall And your storm is gonna knock me way out Knock me way out Come on and knock me way out Knock me way out Knock me way out Our Lady of Perpetual Motion helps me shake my doubt And I know that there will not be a way out I keep going so I can tell myself I was more devout With heaven waiting, why look for a way out? Our Lady of Perpetual Devotion helps me shake my doubt And I know that there will not be a way out Already I can feel the pressure begin to fall And your storm is gonna knock me way out Knock me way out Come on and knock me way out Knock me way out Come on, knock me way out Knock me way out

You wear that look Of disappointment very well When you're looking at me You locked the door And now you cannot find your keys You sigh, "c'est la vie" It wasn't very nice (Was it my breath) Those things you said to me (Or yours we were) Smoking on the patio (Wasting, do you know?) I forgave you then (I forgave you) The way I always did (Always, always) How was I supposed to know (How was I to know?) This is how it goes? You sewed a patch Onto the denim jacket sleeve For all to see You impress me And everybody that you meet So effortlessly But then you scream and shout (Then you tear off) In ways I've never seen (Your shirt, grab me) But only when we're alone (Lights out, who will know?) I forgave you then (I forgave you) The way I always did (Always, always) How was I supposed to know (How was I to know?) This is how it goes? You introduce your Friend whose name I've never heard At the party I fake a smile 'cause My thoughts are so damn absurd They get away from me I know that this was my (I know I said) Idea in the first place (I'd forget it) Now I'm not sure I can cope (I can't let it go) Would you forgive me (You forget me) If I said I've got to go? (Tell me nothing) I just need to be alone (You won't be alone) Please, just let me know
