Lyrics
we’ve been walking around all the holes in the floor
of this house we’ve been haunting since late ‘94
when you signed on the line and I swore that I’d stay
we’ve been dancing with leaving since that day

I’ve been spinning around all the holes in my mind
where the answers went missing in memory and time
will you fade in the echo or swallow me whole
I don’t know

keep waltzing the faultline
shifting the blame
hollow the canyon
shelter my name
we’ve been building our castles on trembling ground
and wondering why they fall down

you’ve been skirting around all the holes in your story
you’re right when you’re wrong, standing right here before me
how did you believe in the way this might go
when you already knew what you already know

you’ve been running around like the walls here won’t hold you
like love is a trap set to shame and to scold you
like there’s nothing here in this home that we made
left to save

keep waltzing the faultline
shifting the blame
hollow the canyon
shelter my name
we’ve been building our castles on trembling ground
and wondering why they fall down

what if I offer my hand and you take it
fall into my arms while the whole world is shaking
we’ll dance through the shadows and settle the score
when the aftershocks come, hell, we’ll beg them for more

we go round and round like there’s no better way
like the sun always sets at the end of the day
but I’ve witnessed the world and I think there is more than we’re saying

keep waltzing the faultline
shifting the blame
hollow the canyon
shelter my name
we’ve been building our castles on trembling ground
and wondering why they fall down
