Hallways Lyrics - Something For Kate

they'll never find us 

painting a self portrait 

painting ourselves into position 

we'll scare them off with word play and sweep them under the rug 

my face is pushed against the glass 

like a slowest-second-better off and thrown from the horse's back 

but i know what i am, is there a trouble with that? 

hanging round hallways 

trying to get a bird's eye view 

little by little (x2) 

they bow their heads to pray for friday night 

to save their lives and then 

they go on through life armed with a scale from one to ten 

hanging round hallways 

like to feel like we're going somewhere 

and the thinner the air becomes 

the more we feel at home 

the more we feel 

i heard her on the phone 

she said, you said, had a good day 

didn't we? (x3) 

and hanging round hallways 

like to feel like we're going somewhere 

and the thinner the air becomes the more we feel 

she said that's entertainment 

but he didn't wanna know 

he carried the shopping bag 

she carried them both
