rubbernecking

maybe my house was burning

maybe my world sits dead

didn't notice you had vanished

i was busy rubbernecking

breakdown looking back breaking up again

a second i better get used to

the circle in a heart is broken

and words so clear

words softly spoken

and i'd say your name

but every time

ghost visions and sympathy

i'm still busy rubbernecking

maybe my house was burning

maybe my world sits dead

didn't notice you had vanished

i was busy rubbernecking

smart eyes and hair like a

bright colors and a wild history

jealousy it creeps through my veins

tell myself inside out and back again

fake a smile 'cause it's gonna take a while

grin and bear it every second

i'm still busy rubbernecking

maybe my house was burning

maybe my world sits dead

didn't notice you had vanished

i was busy rubbernecking

maybe my house was burning

maybe my world sits dead

i was busy rubbernecking

if you don't belong

then please don't be long

if you slip away

then i'll look forward to see you
