Just Beneath the Surface

[Verse 1]

Have you ever thought your little girl glamour shots

And the events of that whole day spent at the mall

Is maybe a part of you you didn't know you were clinging to

As if that's where the secret had taken its hold most of all

Like a feather that finds its invisible path as it falls

[Chorus]

Just beneath the surface, there's another one of me

At the root of all my trouble, in the twitch before I speak

With thoughts and revelations even I could not accept

So just beneath the surface is where he will stay kept

[Verse 2]

When you talk about me, do you stick to the memories

Or was I just another victim of the case

The one that went cold on you the way it was meant to do

For any detective that hasn't accepted his place

And still wanders a city in hopes of it showing its face

[Chorus]

Just beneath the surface, there's another one of me

At the root of all my trouble, in the twitch before I speak

With thoughts and revelations even I could not accept

So just beneath the surface is where he will stay kept

[Bridge]

Between the thoughtless words and the wordless thoughts

Between my plotless fears and my fearless plots

Between the parts of me I keep from you and the things that I'm just not

The center keeps on drifting, the music never stops

[Chorus]

Just beneath the surface, there's another one of me

At the root of all my trouble, in the twitch before I speak

With thoughts and revelations even I could not accept

So just beneath the surface is where he will stay kept
