Books From Boxes

Lyrics

Night falls and towns become circuit boards
 We can beat the sun as long as we keep moving
 From the air, stadium lights stand out like flares
 And all I know is that you're sat here right next to me
 We rarely see warning signs in the air we breathe
 Right now, I feel each and every fragment
 This paper trail leads right back to you
 You say you need me to step outside
 You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
 You passed me up so as not to break a promise
 Scattered Polaroids and sprinkled words around your collar
 In the long run, you said you knew that this would happen
 Well, this is something new, but it turns out it was borrowed too
 Why does every letdown have to be so thin?
 Rain explodes at the moment that the cab door closed
 I feel the weight upon your kiss ambiguous
 Ya have to leave, I appreciate that
 But I hate when conversation slips out of our grasp
 You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
 You passed me up so as not to break a promise
 Scattered Polaroids and sprinkled words around your collar
 In the long run, you said you knew that this would happen
 ♪
 Two bodies in motion
 This is a matter of fact, it wasn't built to last
 Two bodies in motion
 This is a matter of fact, it wasn't built to last
 You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
 You passed me up so as not to break a promise
 Scattered Polaroids and sprinkled words around your collar
 In the long run, you said you knew that this would happen
 The pounding rain continued its bleak fall
 And we decided just to write after all, after all
 ♪
 The pounding rain continued its bleak fall
 We decided just to write after all
