threes...they said that once

Feb 10, 2008 14:00

the hold button is stuck

every tear drop on the sidewalk
sad stories you hear on the train
wrap you up in cold sheets that only worsen the pain
take a warm shower
or just stand in the rain
confuse the music to keep yourself sane

the walkway is blocked
they're doing construction forever
try walking around but the cars fight together
trapped in the summer heat
free, shivering in the winter's endeavor
work hard, let it go, support the tide...never

chorus:
all that she wants...is another free ride
the other side, isn't that much greener
the meaner souls rave--in hell
he fell into reverse--o those butterflies...

the white whale is free again
this world is a bored state
and life, a blank slate
that's cliche, that's what i meant
blood thirsty vampires chase the scent
and homesick mothers repent

chorus

follow a path because that's what you're supposed to do
picking flowers (for her) in the morning
heeding the ultimate warning
the sun is pouring
cyclists soaring...or maybe roaring
we're all so good at ignoring

another first single
so many singles-what's a snail to do?
sitting on the floor in the bedroom
hush!, there's too much panic in the air
turn on the stare
o no! he married the wrong pair

chorus

every breath you take
take a deeper one every time
rhyme, or find someone to do it for you
"i love you", that's a promise not a proclamation
a verbalization of truth
and trust me, that's hard to come by

team work, big plans, steadfast teens
we're so close...
