Hands Like Houses - Motion Sickness Lyrics

How could I miss you
If I never met you
If that road turns another way
And never looked back

There's a feeling overwhelming
Like I couldn't belong
Without this point of contact
Everything would be wrong
Stop-motion on the ceiling, skip frames
And I'm forgetting the in-between

When the world is spinning and I am standing still
When the world comes apart and I'm standing still
You flicker

If I never knew what I've lost (you flicker)
And I turn around, and you're gone (you flicker)

A moment lost is not so easily found
If our grounds turned another way
And never looked back

There's a feeling overwhelming
This is where I belong
This melody inseparable
From singing this song
I'm floating on the ceiling
Skip beats and I'm forgetting the in-between

When the world is spinning and I am standing still
When the world comes apart and I'm standing still
You flicker

If I never knew what I've lost (you flicker)
And I turn around, and you're gone (you flicker)

If you turn left and I turn right
Would the curves of the earth
Bring our paths back to cross again

Would I trust fate
To bring back the tide
Or would I dive head first
To feel you on my skin

(You flicker)

If I never knew what I've lost (you flicker)
And I turn around, and you're gone (you flicker)

When the world is spinning and I am standing still (you flicker)
When the world comes apart and I'm standing still (you flicker)
