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
Said you knew that this would happen

Well this is something new
But it turns out it was borrowed too
Why does every let down
Have to be so thin?
Rain explodes at the moment
That the cab door closed
I feel the weight upon your kiss ambiguous

You 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
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
Said you knew that this would happen

The pounding rain
Continued it's bleak fall
And we decided
Just to right after all, after all

The pounding rain
Continued it's bleak fall
And we decided
Just to right after all
