Same Page, Different Book

I'm tired of keeping pace

But I don't want to fall from grace

By sticking around

Hanging at the promenade

Trying to escape this fog

I guess I'll jump in the river

You're not listening close enough

Oh baby, you're not that tough

Maybe we'll sort it out later

So I'm chugging down my coffee cup

Oh babe I'm gonna erupt

Waiting for the universe to answer

And we're on the same page

But we're reading different books

And I want to take that bait

You're dangling from that hook

We're on the same page

But we're reading different books

Waiting for the hand of fate

But maybe it's just too late

I have to see in the morning

You need to come to your senses

And start swinging for the fences

In this game of give and take

Searching for significance

Just keeps me in a trance

Interpreting every gesture

So I'm chugging down my coffee cup

Oh babe I'm gonna erupt

Waiting for the universe to answer

And we're on the same page

But we're reading different books

And I won't take that bait

You're dangling from that hook
