letra de the lines of the cars - the airborne toxic event

Loading...

oh the lines of the cars
at the college at night
all their pillows, their blankets
their posters and lights
all their hopelessly young faces
tired with the solace of years

and you look at me blankly
did i miss something?
all these kids seem to be
less like ghosts on the ring
of the graveyard we’ve built
from the sting of these horrible fears
and i try not to laugh as it brings you to tears

but i won’t tell your secret
if you won’t tell mine
i’ll just speak quietly
as a well rehe-rs-d line
my, but how time makes one long for such ignorant peers
and you grab hold of my hand as i whisper in your ear

on the day that you die
please remember these words
you were the luckiest gift
that i’ll never deserve
i can feel you and me
like my heart beat
and blood stream in turns

and it’s desperate, i know
but please don’t let go
i can’t begin to repay
all these debts that i owe
i’m just a sketch of a man
i’ll let you know when i sharpen the blurs

i have hurt you, deserted you, left you alone
with your loneliness to wear
like a crown on a throne
i’m as selfish and trite as anything god’s ever known

oh but don’t be afraid
’cause i’m going down too
when i finally fade
i’ll be fading with you
i’ll just hold onto your hand
god, i wish there was more i could do

and these kids have no clue
it’s all happening too
let’s not tell them
let’s pretend it’s just me and you
we’ll find out soon enough
but by then we’ll be dust on their shoes

and these kids have no clue
it’s just me and you
let’s not tell them
let’s pretend it’s happening too
we’ll find out soon enough
but by then we’ll have nothing to lose

i’ll just hold onto your hand
god, i wish there was more i could do
