Casey Dienel - Stationary lyrics

I've tried writing letters Tried reading paperback novels, too I've made changes in my morning routine Because they don't include you All of the love I will call mine and no longer 'Seems like someone misaligned my heart Sitting in taverns with a whiskey grin You want me but you won't take me home. I can't shake you off No matter how hard I try I can't just pick up my pen And write about something else I can't shake you off But, baby, I want to I've tried writing about the weather But all of the patterns seemed the same No one wants to hear songs about the wind Or the clouds when the weekly Outlook always predicts rain Since you left the world went on spinning There were no clouds, nor screams, nor heart attacks But when you returned you still looked pretty So I dropped all of the belongings I was holding in my hands I can't shake you off No matter how hard I try I can't just pick up my pen And write about something else I can't shake you off But, baby, I want to Douse me in cold water Hang me out to dry when the nightmare's over 'Cause I'll be ready, oh you gotta be ready to fall I've tried writing about footprints How funny it is they follow you wherever you go We're invisible when we are running away from the scene of the crime But the evidence still stays in the yard I've tried meeting strangers Listened to them murmur their secrets in the dark But none of them gave me a thrill quite like you do So really, what is the point When I can't shake you off No matter how hard I try I can't just pick up my pen And write about something else I can't shake you off But, baby, I want to I want to, I want to Douse me in cold water Hang me out to dry when the nightmare's over 'Cause I'll be ready, oh you gotta be ready to fall
