Constant Z & The Beamish Boys
Watching The Ceiling
Verse 1
Candles fill the darkness
Lighting up the air around us
April sunsets in bloom
An unfurnished room
Don't know why but we were laughing
Guess there's no point left in asking
You again
Verse 2
Still at odds and ends we'll talk about mundane events
And now this floor's caving in
Words we say just say just wear thin
In my head my heart is pounding
But the drums don't make a sound until the end
Let's slow this down and linger on
Chorus
Not sure what's happening we're
Relapsing back and its contagious
My favourite mess
Say I should make a difference
But I'm still trying keep my head up
And we're so damn stuck
Watching the ceiling
Drop
Watching the ceiling
Verse 3
Songs and broken bones
They say we've strayed off from the road
Observing shapes with no forms
Sketches on walls
Pacing circles round the room
With new distractions to pursue
Wandering alone
Verse 4
Thoughts that come to pass
Laid on a floor made out of glass
They'll say that we should have known
Were losing composure
Nothing left to prove
So tell me now what shall I do
Where do we go
Chorus
Not sure what's happening we're relapsing back and its contagious
My favourite mess
Say I should make a difference
But I'm still trying keep my head up
And we're so damn stuck watching the ceiling
Drop
Watching the ceiling
BRIDGE:
We're lying on the ground
While you were waiting in the lounge
They're saying words are just excuses
But we've been troubled and confused watching the ceiling
Drop
Watching the ceiling
