Cathedral Noise

[Verse 1]
The condensation on a pint of Rainier beer
Makes a temporary map on the dark wood here.
Got the words all tangled, a snarl of thread in your brain,
Drawing circles with your finger, erasing the water stain.

[Pre-Chorus]
And the room goes quiet, just the hum of the vent fan,
Swear in that moment, you could just reach out your hand-

[Chorus]
Making a cathedral noise in my head.
Every word unsaid turns to worship instead.

[Verse 2]
That secondhand sweater has a single fraying seam,
You're telling that story 'bout a half-remembered dream.
Dust motes turn to scripture in the light around your hair,
"You're quiet tonight," you said, like you weren't even there.

[Pre-Chorus]
And the room goes quiet, just the hum of the vent fan,
Swear in that moment, you could just reach out your hand-

[Chorus]
Making a cathedral noise in my head.
Every word unsaid turns to worship instead.

[Bridge]
And for a second, it's just a walking bass and the sound of your breath.
Scared if I speak, I'll just be talking you to death.

[Chorus]
Making a cathedral noise in my head.
Every word unsaid turns to worship instead.

[Outro]
In my head, a cathedral...
In my head...
