Everything's a Ceiling Songtext

von Death Cab for Cutie

Way way down a hole, there's no feeling
Cuz when you're so far below the floor, everything's a ceiling
We dug it down as deep as we could just like we planned it
But when you climbed out you pulled the ladder and it left me stranded

So what am I supposed to do?
I'm calling out to you
But you're miles away, it's true
Digging with someone new

So far down in this hole, there's little daylight
I feel the shards of the midday sun and then it's black as midnight
The only stars I see in the sky, they don't move me
Cuz they've all been dead for millions of years, they're just light diffusing

And the constellations move and the brightest point [?]
But every telescope [?] was pointed only at you

And I've got nowhere to go except further below
So I keep digging
And it gets darker everyday
But I see no other way than just committing

And if the earth is as round as they say
Then I won't find another place
From where I break back through
It's farther away from you
It's farther away from you

So what am I supposed to do?
I'm calling out to you
But you're miles away, it's true
Digging with someone new

So what am I supposed to do?
I'm calling out to you
But you're miles away, it's true
Digging with someone new
Digging with someone new
Digging with someone new
