Tie Goes To The Runner Lyrics by The Bantams

Gettysburg Sorority

2019

[Verse 1]
I miss constantly being berated by you
Like every spoke in the wheel is separately trying to move
Just blank stares for days, I'm immobilized by the changes
I hate constantly being separated from you
[Pre-Chorus]
Three roman candles
And bottom shelf handles
What else could go wrong?
You were exemplary extempore
I'll go around indefinitely
Laugh a little more
[Chorus]
(And then we dance)
And when you lose control
Of both your arms
And you're lost in the crowd
I'll be holding my arms (And then we dance)
Outstretched far away
From my chest
Where they rot all night
Where they sit at rest
[Post Chorus]
(And then we dance)
I wrote down indignantly the songs that make you cry
It's not a spite tour, scan the room
It's just something that is good to use, instead
Of acting out with my friends
I shouldn't do this again
But I'm retreating back into your house, skip to the end
I wanna talk again
But I'm fucking sick of wondering what I could've done different then
Step back to mine, I went to walk outside
I left my keys inside
I didn't have to drive
[Outro]
So I sit in the front seat stoned and jagged mind
I'm not falling for it again
I'm not falling for you again
