Downtime

Everyday Victory

We were somewhere on a boat, it seemed like the space between
A steel bridge and grain silos, you had your arm around me
Lying on the floor, it was warm, slow and clean

For three days, you stayed the same
For three days, you didn't change

Your breath was steady and calm, with none of my nervous twitches
I told you that your skin turned me on, you told me you knew that it did

For three days, you stayed the same
For three days, you didn't change
When all this downtime let me fall so far away
For three days, you stayed the same

All this downtime and you fall so far away
All this downtime let me fall

I stepped onto the shore and watched you drift away
I forgot how to get home, so I waited for you all day
And I wondered what you saw in me

For three days, you stayed the same
For three days, you didn't change
When all this downtime let me fall so far away
For three days, you stayed the same
