understanding in a car crash

splintered piece of glass falls

in the seat

gets caught

these broken windows

open locks

reminders of the youth we lost

in trying so hard to look away from you

we followed white lines to the sunset

i crash my car everyday the same way

time to let this pass

time runs through our veins. we don't stand a chance in this threadbare time

time to let this pass

staring at the setting sun

no reason to come back again

the twilight world in blue and white

the needle and the damage done

i don't want to feel this way forever

a dead letter marked return to sender

the broken watch you gave me turns into a compass

it's two hands still point to the same time 12:03

our last goodbye

so push the seats back a little further

i can see the headlights coming

so push the seats back a little further

roll the windows down and take a breath

i can see the headlights coming

they paint the world in red and broken glass

time to let this pass

time runs through our veins. we don't stand a chance in this threadbare time

time to let this pass

staring at the setting sun

no reason to come back again

the twilight world in blue and white

the needle and the damage done

i don't want to feel this way forever

a dead letter marked return to sender

the spinning hubcaps set the tempo

for the music of the broken window

the cameras on and the cameras click

we open up the lens and can't stop

staring at the setting sun

no reason to come back again

the twilight world in blue and white

the needle and the damage done

i don't want to feel this way forever

the lights are on and the cameras click

we open up the lens

staring at the setting sun

no reason to come back again

the twilight world in blue and white

the needle and the damage done

i don't want to feel this way forever

a dead letter marked return to sender

in a crash!
