Where Miles Become Meaning

Underwater Tiger Where Miles Become Meaning Lyrics
1.Where Miles Become Meaning


2.Bones

Your lovely bones left marks on me
Impressions like teeth are how you like to tease
Lasting through the winter months
Like these little cuts
You get cuter everyday

Your lovely bones aren't what they seem
Hiding underneath your soft skin sleeves
Lies something worse than your touch
Something terrible
And it's growing everyday

You're like oh so intricate
Oh so delicate
(You watch heartbreak, and you just can't relate)
You're like dead inside

Your lovely bones harbor your disease
Bleeding from your tongue you're only making a scene
It's bad when you make love
The same way you fuck
You get cuter everyday

But I can see straight through
Baby girl I see you


3.Oh So Surreal

Here we are, Love
Laying awkward and innocent
Or so it seems...
It's not the way your jeans fit to your frame
Or the way your tongue can twist
It's how bad you want me inside of you

And oh
We've been waiting so long
So tonight we'll do this right

And I'll say
And you'll know
My heart shakes when you go
And it's all down hill from here

This is ours, Love
The heat we make with our bodies pushed close
Our stolen innocence lost in this bed
And my lips across your neck
You haven't said much of anything
But your hands, your eyes, your thighs...
When you take control

We've been waiting so long
So tonight we'll do this right

And I'll say
And you'll know
My heart shakes when you go
And it's all down hill from here

This is love
This is real

Your eyes are closed, but your hands don't falter
Your skin exposed, this bed our altar
Baby, this is what it's like to feel oh so surreal


4.The In-Between

Baby, I've wondered where my conscience jumped ship
On my way out her door and into yours

Please don't look at me with those eyes
It makes me feel so exposed

On a cold night you let me in
And I felt the warmth of your skin
Baby I've lost my head and I won't find it here
On my way out her door and into yours

Please don't look at me with those eyes
It makes me feel so exposed
Please don't look at me with those eyes
'Cause I'm afraid to try


5.Just Go

You know that I've been better
And I know you're not your best
But it's obvious
We both have something to get off our chests

This has gone on way too long
So don't act like it's alright, when it's all wrong

You know the distance never mattered
It was only a matter of time
And I know time is the greatest distance between
Your heart and mine

This has gone on way too long
So don't act like it's alright, when it's all wrong
This has gone on way too long
So baby this is how we'll sing our goodbye song

Go on
Tell me you're sad
'Cause it's not that hard to see
The light fill your eyes when you speak his name


6.Shipwreck Love

As soon as I set eyes on you
I knew you were something different
Shining brighter
And in your eyes I caught a glimpse
With a kiss upon my lips
A girl with dreams paints the bluest of oceans
She cries

'Cause it don't look the way she pictured
A mixture of grayer skies and unsettled waters
And on the horizon she caught a glimpse
The remains of sunken ships
Drowning her heart beneath the surface
She can't let go

Tell me something
How can you move on when you're always looking back?

As you're fading out of view
Do you get that sinking feeling in your stomach?
You keep your shipwreck love at bay
I'll hope for current's change
Maybe we'll meet again someday
Somehow...

You know he'll wait forever
I got no time for that
You know he'll wait forever
I got more spine than that

Can you feel it?
Did I get inside?
Did you mean it?
Don't apologize
If it's the last time

8.Treading Days

Change winds blow across my face (across my face)
I search in vain to find my place (so far away)
Survive the storm inside my chest (it tears me up)
I slowly sink into unconsciousness (I'm heavy as I fall down)

My treading days are over
These chains ain't got no key
They hold my head beneath the water
And I'm learning how to breathe

Tell me, where do drowned men sleep?
And show me that one burning light to lead me home
Bring me safety with no lines
But only if you help me find the right direction now
(the right direction)

My treading days are over
These chains ain't got no key
They hold my head beneath the water
And I'm learning how to breathe

Euphoric dreams in weightless scenes
Inhaling these liquid epiphanies


9.Rocky Loves Emily

What you see is what you get
This is it
I'd rather live and then die in the moment that we kissed
'Cause I've been trying to be heard for years gone by
And it's time for you to choose
You're either his or mine

She said, We are so far from the top
You've got a lot to impress on me
Before you can make me hot
Make me believe in what we got.
So then I pressed and pressed on
'Cause for you my dear, you are the sun

What you see is what you get
This is it
I'd rather live another day as your love than anyone else
But you've been pushing me away
You can't forgive me for just one day

She said, We are so far from the top
You've done a lot to make me want to walk away
Some things you said can't be taken back.'
So then I pressed and pressed on
But you my dear, you were done

I'll see your face
On the other side of the ocean that hides your smile
And I'll be the man
Who a thousand miles means nothing to
'Cause my hearts on fire


10.One November Night

As we stagger home
This winter air can't cool our blood
Not with the hearts we have
Burning beneath our chests
Circulating love and whiskey
We walk these streets
As we find our way home tonight
I find my way to you

Cold air, dark night
We're guided by streetlights
And an overwhelming feeling of...

As we walk into your parents house
We take small steps not to wake them up
But girl, we're not that smooth
No, we've never been
The heat flow through the doorway fills my lungs
As we tear open our hearts tonight
I find my way to you

Cold air, dark night
We're guided by streetlights
Warm lips, light eyes
Misguided by our heart's cries
And an overwhelming feeling of

Hope and love and longing for
Body entwined mornings
And waking up to a lover's touch
Filling us with the season's best


11.The Summer Came

I guess I couldn't care less
I guess I couldn't really care anymore
I've been falling through the cracks
Finding home in the space between floorboards

I said I think I got something
I think I really got something this time
Or I'm confusing what I'm seeing
With a fleeting ghost of love I watched die

I'm just an addict for a feeling
Do you know the feeling I mean?

And I'm not going home just yet
Are you dying to be on your own?
Are you dying?

I guess I couldn't care less
I guess I couldn't really care anymore
If I'm only treading water
I'll find true love on the ocean floor

I mistake lovers for liars
And lust leaves me empty inside
I'd given up and given in
Before the summer came

You can speak anytime
'Cause I know what it's like
Underneath those eyes
You can dream what you like
'Cause I know you're alive
Underneath those eyes

As far as I'm concerned
This has only just begun
