"(How To Live In The) Arctic" Lyrics

Okay, I think I have to explain
Why we've been lying in wait
Under the sheets with blankets at our feet
'Cause God knows we don't need the heat
I've been checking my wrist for a sign
A sign to tell me getting up is alright
A sign to tell me what I'm doing is fine
But a watch only tells you the time
It's no problem for you to sleep
But my stomach's tied up in knots so deep that I can't even eat
Let alone sleep or dream
Plenty more time to smooth this all clean
When morning comes and we'll go separate ways
There's no question of it, it's myself to blame
I'll force down a breakfast lacking any taste
And I'll wonder if I'm the only one
Who can't stand that nothing will change

Nothing will change
I'm just resting my eyes
I'm just taking my time
