Lyrics
American History
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We are the young blood
The “any-time” assumption
The overstayed
With a jaded name
We are the truce
Waiting for bad news
To chase us down
And tear us inside out
Let's try words
Less slow verbs
The action's a fraction
Of how much this hurts
It's like a told you
When this was too far
Tell me why we wonder
What we were thinking all along
Tell me why we wonder
If your indigo eyes are mine
We are expected
But only in the best way
To live a small time
A year: Expired
We are supposed to
Fall into exposure
We have the biggest sparkling eyes
(But they both have an ugly side)
Let's try words
Less slow verbs
The action's a fraction
Of how much this hurts
It's like a told you
When this was too far
Tell me why we wonder
What we were thinking all along
Tell me why we wonder
If your indigo eyes are mine
Let's try words
Less slow verbs
The action's a fraction
Of how much this hurts
Is this what we deserve
Before we're in the dirt?
Miles of aisles
Filled up with files of titles
Describing how much this hurts?
