the quickening of the steps    indecipherable    from the beating in his chest    it's almost bearable    tonight we can dance    to the sound of our breathing    we can all embrace    the feeling that's fleeting       and the beat goes on...       cars and trains    boats and planes    so many ways for love to go astray    afternoons and sunny breaks    never enough to fill the empty space       the shaking of the ground    undetectable    by the simple tools we've got    why does it matter though?    if we can't feel at home    then the world is ending    the braces just won't hold    the sky is collapsing       and the beat goes on...    (call it off and on, turn it off and on)       cars and trains    boats and planes    so many ways for love to go astray    afternoons and sunny breaks    never enough to fill the empty space
