Sputter (EP Version)

Sputter (EP Version) - The Academy Is...

Wake up, try on your new disguise

Would they recognize you anyway?

Would they?

Dead leaves lie down beneath your feet

As you step into the street and

Notice the distance between the hearts and homes

But still you know it's alright

You're not looking back this time

You know it's alright

You're stepping on the cracks and you feel fine

Don't waste your breath

You wouldn't want this anyway

And if you did, I think I'd let you

Talk this to death, or in circles like we're aeroplanes

But all along I knew that we would sputter out

We would sputter

Outside constructions workers pour

A brand new basement floor

But then the ground starts shaking

Fault lines to your own front door

I looked at this and thought of you

And all that is and isn't true

And with the strength left in me

Walked on while the walls came down

It's alright

You're not looking back this time

You know it's alright

I'm stepping on the cracks and I feel fine

Don't waste your breath

You wouldn't want this anyway

And if you did, I think I'd let you

Talk this to death, or in circles like we're aeroplanes

But all along I knew that we would sputter out

We would sputter

We would sputter...

We would sputter...

We would sputter out...

We would sputter out

Don't waste your breath

You wouldn't want this anyway

And if you did, I think I'd let you

Talk this to death, or in circles like we're aeroplanes

But all along I knew that we would sputter out. (We would sputter)

But all along I knew that we would sputter out. (We would sputter)

But all along I knew that we would sputter out

We would sputter

We would sputter down
