lyrics

Travelling, swallowing dramamine
Travelling, swallowing dramamine, dramamine

Tongues are interlocked, but not necessarily tied
Time passes by rapidly, kinda makes me wonder why I ever even tried
My favorite type of beauty is the heartbreaking kind
So when I get mine broken, I guess I shouldn't mind
If I climb to the top, maybe I won't feel it when I fall
It's that type of thinkin' that got me here at all
Feeling so involved with problems I can't solve
Pour me into your coffee and watch me dissolve

If you could just milk it for everything
I've said what I've said and you know what I mean
I still can't focus on anything
We kiss on the mouth but still cough down our sleeves

Travelling, swallowing dramamine
Travelling, swallowing dramamine, dramamine

Tongues are interlocked, but is there even a reason?
Days turn into weeks, into months, into seasons
It would seem interlaced fingers gave us something to believe in
Now that the grip is loosened, I'm glad that you're leaving
Hindsight's only as perfect as anything else
Thought I meant as much to you as you did to yourself
When you spend this much time walking through Hell
You get to know the geography pretty damn well

If you could just milk it for everything
I've said what I've said and you know what I mean
I still can't focus on anything
We kiss on the mouth but still cough down our sleeves

Travelling, swallowing dramamine
Travelling, swallowing dramamine, dramamine

Tongues are interlocked, repetition in the name of expectation
Articulation of thoughts could've spared us this situation
Instead lips stayed locked, all that remained was fixation
And a far off look in eyes that delivered mixed statements
Continents slowly shift as people drift apart
Now this I understand, but that don't make it less hard
After hearing the things that you say in your sleep
I'd hate to see what you hide up your sleeves

If you could just milk it for everything
I've said what I've said and you know what I mean
I still can't focus on anything
We kiss on the mouth but still cough down our sleeves
