through my tears (a.k.a. message sent)
neutral milk hotel
watch the wind blow your cigarette smoke
through my window and out to the sky
but now the ink will fade
before the night is through my dear
where were you when the cracks were forming
where were you when it all caved in
you were sleeping safe that morning
holding insecurities that burrowed underneath your skin
all alone - another twisted moment's gone
that will never pass this way again
and through it all i thought there'd be some shred of hope
but faith i've found will do you in
and all the words that build into
a bridge of love between me and you
are you another heart that i must sing goodbye my dear
where were you when the cracks were forming
where were you when it all caved in
you were sleeping safe that morning
holding insecurities that burrowed underneath your skin
