car seat headrest - life worth missing (vinyl) lyrics

Loading...

as if on cue
they lit a firework
the sky reeled back
and i ran fast
to get to you

i think you knew
before the war began
what loving to run towards something
can do to a man

fall over the edge
learn to live while falling
every laugh is a path worth following
when you put it in words
it’s comfortingly bland
there’s so little left
to understand

when we’re strung up hanging
from the knots we’ve allowed
we call up our angels
to cut us down
“if you could be proud
of anything you’ve done
what would it be?”
then they disappear
and we are up in the clouds

i feel the tension shock
right through my body
i am wide awake
shake a laugh from me

i thought one day
i thought i’d find a hole
in my own backyard, i’d never seen before
follow it down
underneath that fence
come back up on the other side
live another life

break down the door, it’s yours for the taking
i held it back until you stopped asking
my eyes are blurred, the clock is ticking
i’m coming up short in a life worth nothing

i hear women in my head (coming up short)
with ordinary names (in a life worth nothing)
that ring like magic (i’m coming up short)
through some malfunction in my brain (in a life worth nothing)
your hands were warm
though you came in from the cold
i took one and held it
and suddenly started to shake
shake
shake
shake
shake
sha+ake!

i feel the tension shock right
through my body, i am wide awake
shake a laugh from me

i feel the tension shock right
through my body, i am wide awake
shake a laugh from me

all the best lines get replaced
i sold you short to fill the empty sp+ce
i’m sorry

mend the fence with the best of grace
it’s pleasantries to the bottom of the page
i’m sorry
