Death Cab For Cutie - Everything's A Ceiling Lyrics
Way way down in a hole, there's no feeling
Cause when you're so far beneath the floor, everything's a ceiling
We dug it down as deep as we could just like we planned it
But when you climbed out you pulled the ladder and it left me stranded
I'm calling out to you
But you're miles away, it's true
Digging with someone new
So far down in this hole, there's little daylight
I feel the shards of the midday sun and then it's black as midnight
The only stars I see in the sky, they don't move me
Cause they've all been dead for millions of years, they're just light diffusing
And the constellations move and the brightest point is full
And I've got nowhere to go except further below
So I keep digging
And it gets darker everyday
But I see no other way than just committing
And if the earth is as round as they say
Then I won't find another place
From where I break back through
It's farther away from you
It's farther away from you
So what am I supposed to do?
I'm calling out to you
But you're miles away, it's true
Digging with someone new
So what am I supposed to do?
I'm calling out to you
But you're miles away, it's true
Digging with someone new
Digging with someone new
Digging with someone new

Death Cab For Cutie Everything's A Ceiling Comments
Extremely underrated song from DCFC. This one really hits home.
Anyone here from Kidbehindacamera? Just me?
Almost at 1,000 likes guys!! Three more people!!
One of my faves.
Every time I listen to this one it just brings me to tears. Man the hole I am in my life right now, wish I could just climb out.
But you are miles away its true....
digging with someone new......
"And I've got nowhere to go except further below
So I keep digging
And it gets darker everyday
But I see no other way than just committing"
Last year I got in a terrible depression after coming out that almost took my life, and yet I escaped of it all by myself. Now that I get to listen to this again I realize this is exactly how I felt.
Many DCfC songs helped me through everything, and even though there are many that make me feel some kind of sadness reminding me the whole situation, I'm eternally grateful to them for 'sticking with me' through their music.
Such an underrated band, been following DCFC since 2005 and the awesome album (Plans) but this song became easily one of my favorites
The most underrated band in music history!
even the floor is a ceiling!
vengan a Mexico !!! PORFAVOR !
the guitar riff is so good 0:40
I love this. You are one of my new favorite bands! Also, I am now using your lyrics for a project for school to analyze a song. :) ily guys
This song has so much depth about the other person leaving you "stranded" so suddenly. We have all been there. . He was given up on. It's such a worthless feeling. You're calling out to them, but no one's there... You've got nowhere to go but further below but you keep digging. But you keep committing. And that's how you find your way to new life and new love. Another home run, Ben. And that's why you're my favorite songwriter and my personal hero.
Bandas como está me dan fuerza para vivir 🌹 temónnnnnnn !!!!
But you're miles away it's true, digging with someone new...
How could I be so stupid to let you go. Will we ever meet again?
you never know. in the meantime, do what you should have done to the one that's there now, or who comes next.
@Nick Randles Thanks!
"And the constellations move and the brightest point is full." Love that part!
+Grimlock 84 I need you to know, they are not the lyrics.
Here you go, and I hope you love these more :)
"And a constellation is more
Than the brightest point of its form
But every telescope you assumed
Was pointed only at you"
¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡Como me gusta esta canción!!!!!!!
Como me gustan Death Cat For Cutie
The Postal Service *is* Ben Gibbard
What amazes me is that in all his previous songs, he would feel empathy for all the women he's not loved, from a 3rd person perspective almost, with some being about how much of a terrible person he is. Throughout this album there is a lot of sadness and longing. He actually loved nobody like he loved/loves her, this is entirely from his perspective, he's no longer outside looking in, but inside looking out. I hate to say it, but I'm glad for the divorce because it inspired these songs. Keep running on Ben.
Anyone Here From KidBehindACamera
I thought I was the only one. Damn
One of my fav from this album :)
candles in a ceiling....you've never looked so pretty......glacial pace like modest Mouse....palisades like Ugly Cassanova......tips of the hat all over the place
Superb song
I just finished reading 'The Collector', this song ties in perfectly.
Ft. Postal Service?
this is such a good song!
Just discover this band and I'm loving all the songs! So much better than so many mainstream bands and singers.
Exactly!
Favourite track from Album, along Ghost Beverley,No Room in Frame..great album. For the DCFC purist I can see how they might have some gripes but for a person who does not solely listen to this style of music, it's a great album.
This song was so beautifully written.
Man this new album is fantastic!
Way way down a hole, there's no feeling,

So far down in this hole, there's little daylight.

But you're miles away, it's true
Digging with someone new
Digging with someone new
Digging with someone new
@Rachel Harper go to Binary Sea and add the lyrics....thanks
