i could say it or say nothing at all
take a walk or take none at all 
get on a bus back to montreal
make a plan or plan nothing all
i could make it there fast
i could make it there slow
but silence is a shadow
when it is swallowed whole

now i’m on the 97 going west
home, to my parents
thinking of moving back in the fall
cause i’m going mad in the apartment
I could make it there fast
i could make it there slow
i'm not being dramatic
or dark in tone when I say

somebody hurt me badly
now i’m stuck in a rut
now i’m going crazy
somebody hurt me badly
now i’m stuck in a rut
now i don’t know my body

i could say it or say nothing at all
take a walk or take none at all
get on a bus back to montreal
tell my friends or say nothing at all
i could make it there fast
i could make it there slow
i could take my time
and i’m not lying
when i say

somebody hurt me badly
now i’m stuck in a rut
now i’m going crazy
somebody hurt me badly
now i’m stuck in a rut
now i don’t know my body
somebody hurt me badly
now i’m stuck in a rut
now i’m going crazy
