Calm Songtext
von Maxïmo Park

How many words did you come up with today?
How many words do you want to hear tonight?
You flare up but beneath lies defeat
I see your eyes now and they are calm

I′ve answered enough phones for one life
I've worn too many ties around my neck

I wake up and I find a trace of you there
So sullen, your words haunt the air

I wake up and I find a trace of you there
So sullen


Taking long walks in perfect silence
Joined together in useless harmony
Your hard breath means that you′re upset
An overheated North-West bliss

But I've answered enough phones for one life
I've worn too many ties around my neck

Just wait and see
I don′t know much about bravery
But I′ll raise you up
With my bad jokes and loose promises

She said to think of her when I'm alone
But I′m never alone
When I want to be


I wake up and I find a trace of you there
So sullen, your words haunt the air
I wake up and I find a trace of you there
So sullen, your words haunt the air
Your words haunt the air
