In Certain Orders Lyrics

Can't we even draw a little line
Without it getting crooked everytime
Someone find this magnet and unearth it
Find this gravity that pulls from perfect

When you take a secret to the grave
No one even knows that you were brave
But words only appear in certain orders
Or no one listens anyway, it doesn't go that way
We don't know how to hear it but we think it's what we don't know how to say

Behind the eyes and ears are little throats
Gagging on all unfamiliar notes
Choking off all inorganic bits
Boxes are the size of what it fits

Sizes that are alien to trust
Sizes and the shapes made out of us
See words only appear in certain orders
Or no one listens anyway, it doesn't go that way We don't know how to hear it but we think it's what we don't know how to say

Walking through a forest in the dark
Aiming at a universal mark
Till randomly a piece of what you mean
Is connected into everything unseen

Anyone can do it just as well
It doesn't help as far as I can tell
And kindness only works in certain orders
Or no one feels it anyway, it doesn't go that way
And thoughts only appear in certain orders

Or no one thinks them anyway, it doesn't go that way
And words only appear in certain orders
Or no one listens anyway, it doesn't go that way
We don't know how to hear it but we think it's what we don't know how to say
