Inexplicable Lyrics - The Correspondents

Inexplicably high 

Inexplicably low 

I think I know what I want but I don't know where to go 

And all the while it seems 

that I'm 

living in my dreams 

I'm not in the now 

No, Not in the now. 

When I was four 

I raised my finger to a moving car 

It crashed 

So I assumed I had a superpower 

I didn't raise that finger until I was nine 

When a school boy attacked for the twenty-fifth time. 

Down I went, my index still up 

So convinced that he would just drop 

Powerless to make it stop 

Powerless to make it stop. 

Inexplicably high 

Inexplicably low 

I think I know what I want but I don't know where to go 

And all the while it seems 

that I'm 

living in my dreams 

I'm not in the now 

No, not in the now. 

At nineteen 

I still just about believed in God 

I guess 

That I was pretty late to shake it off 

Faulty magic whispered to the man who could mend 

I tricked myself in thinking he could cure my best friend. 

Two weeks in, his insides gave up 

If drugs can't help, why would words bring him luck 

Powerless to make it stop 

Powerless to make it stop. 

Inexplicably high 

Inexplicably low 

I think I know what I want but I don't know where to go 

And all the while it seems 

that I'm 

living in my dreams 

I'm not in the now 

No, not in the now. 

Now 

my hands are pulling at the donkeys rains 

I feel 

I've gone the wrong route down a dusty lane 

The grass could have been greener down the first road that I took 

I'd give up my happiness just for one look 

My 

lust to win is eating me up 

The game I can't win up against my clock. 

Powerless to make it stop 

Powerless to make it stop. 

Inexplicably high 

Inexplicably low 

I think I know what I want but I don't know where to go 

And all the while it seems 

that I'm 

living in my dreams 

I'm not in the now 

No, not in the now. 

Inexplicably high 

Inexplicably low 

I think I know what I want but I don't know where to go 

And all the while it seems 

that I'm 

living in my dreams 

I'm not in the now 

No, not in the now. 

Inexplicably high 

Inexplicably low 

I think I know what I want but I don't know where to go 

And all the while it seems 

that I'm 

living in my dreams 

I'm not in the now 

No, not in the now.
