Noises In the Night
The C.R.S. Players Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where have I been going wrong
I know I worry when I shouldn't
My thoughts just wonder in the moment
My mind gets lost in the noise
My glances over getting stolen
For the smallest stumble in your poise
So I peer behind the curtains
To the rain
On the single glazed pane
A crack running from the corner
My thoughts just wonder in the moment
My mind gets lost in the noise
So did we get past the state
Of the overgrowing undertones replaced
By a majesty and beauty in the shape
In the ripples of the water from the waves
Of the crevices, the blemishes
And the surface imperfections
Flowing over the linoleum
Of my second floor bedroom
But grab a handle on the moment
Without it spiraling away
And I lose it to a memory
That I forget within the day
So did we get past the state
Of the overgrowing undertones replaced
By a majesty and beauty in the shape
In the ripples of the water from the waves
Of the crevices, the blemishes
And the surface imperfections
Flowing over the linoleum
Of my second floor bedroom
But grab a handle on the moment
Without it spiraling away




And I lose it to a memory
That I forget within the day
