Trying to Pull Myself Away

The Swell Season · Once (Music from the Motion Picture) [2007]

Breaking up in the station, a final train

I don't even know if I'll ever see you again

Is it a choice that we even have?



Bang bang down on the piano 'til I smash the keys

Listening alone with the melodies

Everything's gone and I don't know where



And the rule of thumb don't apply anymore

'Cause the house is burning....



Trying to pull myself away

I'm caught in a pattern and I can't escape

Trying to pull myself away



Lately when I get lost there's this thing I know

Even the dogs have somewhere to go

Everything comes if you just it be



Work, work, brighten the corners that will never see

Untangle the thoughts that you know what they mean

I hope that the answer doesn't come to late



And the rule of thumb don't apply on me

'Cause the table are turning



Trying to pull myself away

I'm caught in a pattern and I can't escape

Trying to pull myself away

I'm caught in a pattern and I can't escape

Can't escape



Trying to pull myself away, everything's gone

Trying to pull myself away, everything's gone
