plastic ceilings Lyrics by Housecat

some things change, others stay the same

2024

[Verse 1]
I knew the first time when it ended, you still had some things to say
Ain't it funny how some things change and others stay the same
We met up on a hilltop and talked for ten hours straight
And I felt like a little kid when I said I wanted to kiss you
I could feel you getting closer
I miss having you by my side
Yet you were late when we met later
And I was scared you lied
So I got drunk because I thought you changed your mind
And we met up later and you told me about your friend that died

[Refrain]
And only in dreams do I get that feeling
Me and you dancing on plastic ceilings

[Verse 2]
Then we drank wine by the sunset
Like two figures in a painting
And you fell asleep on my shoulder
While I showed you Life Aquatic
You said that you were dreaming and I was there with you
And you went home and I was dreaming of your lips for the next week
Got you roses wrapped in the morning in a [?]
You said you couldn't remember the last time someone gave you flowers
And we sat on a trampoline and talked about the past
And I saw you later and you kissed me in the grass

[Chorus]
It's just smoke and air
The moment was fleeting
You could see our future, just not the one I was seeing

[Verse 3]
When I woke up, I was next to you
And I felt I couldn't breathe
Like I was drowning in the bed
Sinking in the sheets
And in my fear, I turned over and touched your leg
But you had to leave early for a therapist appointment
Your dad looked angry when I dropped you off
I knew he never liked me
And in your absence, the hole was growing
The more reasons you were finding
I know you only did it because you didn't want me to suffer
But I'll be honest, I never liked your brother
Only it seems am I happy when I'm sleeping
Listening to the rhythm of our footsteps on plastic ceilings

[Verse 4]
You can't stop yourself from hurting me
No, you never changed
I just always take on more of the blame
It's a pity that you can't think for yourself
And even though you're older, I hope that you can grow up some day

[Chrous]
It's all smoke and air
Your words of care lost their meaning
These two stars aren't aligned, it's an illusion that you're seeing

[Refrain]
And only in dreams do I get that feeling
Me and you dancing on plastic ceilings
