The Things We Do Lyrics

I check the lock
Then check it twice
I don't know why
It just feels right

I move the chair
An inch or two
It's just a thing
I have to do

I take the long way
Driving home
Down a road
I've always known

There's nothing there
I need to see
But something always
Calls to me

The things we do for no reason
The little rules we never break
The quiet choices that we keep
The tiny steps we always take

They don't add up
And that's okay
We're just built
A different way

I save a number
I never call
It doesn't make
Much sense at all

I keep a shirt
I never wear
It's missing someone
Who isn't there

The things we do for no reason
The little rules we never break
The quiet choices that we keep
The tiny steps we always take

We all have quiet little rules
We keep inside our head
A million tiny rituals
That remain unsaid

The things we do for no reason
The little rules we never break
The quiet choices that we keep
The tiny steps we always take
