We Both Lose Lyrics — Pavement

You slammed the door in my face, how do we get to this place?
Every time, you always close your mind
But in your code of silence, the truth is you're denying
Everything that doesn't fall in line

You believe in something, even you don't understand

I know, I know the tradition is
To follow, follow wherever you lead
I let go you should know that I'm disappointed like you
So we both lose

You sheltered me my whole life, made me look through your eyes
I was blind, to the things that you were blind to
I danced with indecision, cleared my blurry vision
I don't blame you, but I wanted to remind you

I believe in something, that you'll never understand

I know, I know the tradition is
To follow, follow wherever you lead
I let go you should know that I'm disappointed like you
So we both lose

Thought you walked on water
They were only puddles in the sand...in the sand
