Train Underwater - Bright Eyes
You were born inside of a raindrop
I watched you falling to your death
And the sun, well it could not save you
And falling down to, the streets are wet
Body of water, toxic and timeless
Atlantic ocean, New York skyline
I always get lost, when I leave the village
So I couldn?t come meet you in Brooklyn last night
But I sing glory for my Louis
And I will say peace to the people I meet
While the world waits for an explosion
An instant of light that wipes the slate clean
So don?t be fooled so don?t be lied to
Love was always cruel
Don?t act strange, don?t be a stranger
It happened to me now it?s happening to you
But if you take that train underwater,
Then we could talk it through
Well if I could tame all of my desires
Wait out the weather, it howls in my brain
Because it seems that it?s always changing
The winds indecision the sorrowful rain
I was a postcard I was a record
I was a camera until I went blind
Now I?m riding all over this island
Looking for something to open my eyes
Well we still sing glory from a high rise
And I will say thanks if you?re pouring my drinks
While the world waits for an explosion
That moment in time when we are set free
So don?t stay mad, just let some time pass
And in the morning you?ll wake feeling ?
And if I don?t come back I mean if I get sidetracked
It?s only cause I wanted to
Keeping up with the moon on an all night avenue
