[Verse 1] I keep the key in my coat Even when I’m at your door Your name is a bruise in my throat That I don’t try to cure The room keeps its distance The glass keeps its stain I touch the frame with my fingers And it answers the same [Pre-Chorus] I know that look in your eyes I know that cut in the air We can pretend it’s harmless But the night is already there [Chorus] Same old feeling Same old ache Same old reason I don’t escape You come back thin as smoke You come back cold and slow Yes it is the same old feeling [Verse 2] Your coat on the chair is a ghost Your shoes by the wall sit tight The clock in the hall won’t help me It keeps on biting the night I said I was moving on I said it clean, I said it plain Then your name hit the doorframe And the whole place changed [Pre-Chorus] I know that look in your eyes I know that cut in the air We can pretend it’s harmless But the night is already there [Chorus] Same old feeling Same old ache Same old reason I don’t escape You come back thin as smoke You come back cold and slow Yes it is the same old feeling [synthesizers solo] [Bridge] If I let go, I vanish If I stay, I burn I keep walking that narrow line For the hurt I earned [Final Chorus] Same old feeling Same old ache Same old reason I don’t escape You come back thin as smoke You come back cold and slow Yes it is the same old feeling Yes it is the same old feeling
