Lyrics Roll With The Punches (Live From An Evening With Dawes) - Dawes

The separation was symmetrical
They both retreated to their sides
Drawing lists of demands and muddy lines in the sand
Trying out their separate lives

Most of the damage was collateral
But still inspired some debate
All the principles of why all the people we love
Are the same ones we can also hate

You just roll with the punches
Until you can't feel a thing
You just roll with the punches
Aw, yeah

The separation was logistical
Deciding what belongs to whom
How dying love manifests in a rug or a chest
The decorations of a room

Every promise was negotiable
Most of all the ones they made alone
What she finally forgave what he'll take to his grave
Learning how to not pick up the phone

You just roll with the punches
Until you can't feel a thing
You just roll with the punches
Aw, yeah

The separation was a miracle
The band of static right behind your eyes
That you filter everything through without knowing you do
A past and future synthesized

You just roll with the punches
Until you can't feel a thing
You just roll with the punches
Aw, yeah

You just roll with the punches
Until you can't feel a thing
You just roll with the punches
Aw, yeah
