the postal service - (give up, 2003)
the district sleeps alone tonight
such great heights
i really love this electronipop style.
(such great heights)
I am thinking it’s a sign that the freckles
In our eyes are mirror images and when
We kiss they’re perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate that God himself
Did make us into corresponding shapes like
Puzzle pieces from the clay
True, it may seem like a stretch, but
Its thoughts like this that catch my troubled
Head when you’re away when I am missing you to death
When you are out there on the road for
Several weeks of shows and when you scan
The radio, I hope this song will guide you home
They won’t see us waving from such great
Heights, ’come down now,’ they’ll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
’come down now,’ but we’ll stay...
I tried my best to leave this all on your
Machine but the persistent beat it sounded
Thin upon listening
That frankly will not fly. you will hear
The shrillest highs and lowest lows with
The windows down when this is guiding you home
(the district sleeps alone tonight)
Smeared black ink... your palms are sweaty
And i’m barely listening to last demands
I’m staring at the asphalt wondering what’s buried underneath where i am
I’ll wear my badge... a vinyl sticker with bigh block letters adherent to my chest
That tells your new friends i am a visitory here...
I am not permanent
And the only thing keeping me dry is where i am
You seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with yor door key explaining that i am just visiting
And i am finally seeing why i was the one worth leaving
D.C. sleeps alone tonight
You seem so so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex
A stranger with your door key explaining that i am just visiting
And i am finally seing why i was the one worth leaving
The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights
And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening
And i am finally seeing why i was the one worth leaving
(suddenly everything has changed)
Putting all the vegetables away
that you bought at the grocery store today.
And it goes fast, you think of the past.
Suddenly everything has changed.
Driving home the sky accelerates.
And the clouds all form a geometric shape.
And it goes fast, you think of the past.
Suddenly everything has changed.
Putting all the clothes you washed away,
As you’re folding up the shirts you hesitate.
Then it goes fast, you think of the past.
Suddenly everything has changed.
