Smoking vines like cigarettes
Looking through the trashy mags
Trying to feel what's coming next
You told me of crashing cars
Older brothers and late night bars
I told you what I feel most
And you kept it like a ghost forever
Don't you write it down
Remember this in your head
Don't take a picture
Remember this in your heart
Don't leave a message
Talk to me face to face
Talk to me face to face
Lying on the bright blue jumping mat
Dinner bell is ringing
Barking dogs and model planes
And the sound of passing trains
We watch for bonfires in the sky
On the beach in July
Spin the bottle steal the kiss
Postcards to the one I miss forever
The one I miss forever
Don't you write it down
Remember this in your head
Don't take a picture
Remember this in your heart
I'll leave a message
When everything comes apart
(Talk to me face to face)
(Talk to me face to face)
(Everything comes apart)
I'll leave a message
When everything comes apart
I remember cats on fire
Gasoline a burning spiral
Standing underneath the night
Fighting back with all my might
Empty cans and charred remains
Find them in the heat of day
On the top of dead man's hill
This is what I know of shame forever
We were down at dead man's hill Smoking vines like cigarettes Looking through the trashy mags Trying to feel what's coming next You told me of crashing cars Older brothers and late night bars I told you what I feel most And you kept it like a ghost forever Don't you write it down Remember this in your head Don't take a picture Remember this in your heart Don't leave a message Talk to me face to face Talk to me face to face Lying on the bright blue jumping mat Dinner bell is ringing Barking dogs and model planes And the sound of passing trains We watch for bonfires in the sky On the beach in July Spin the bottle steal the kiss Postcards to the one I miss forever The one I miss forever Don't you write it down Remember this in your head Don't take a picture Remember this in your heart I'll leave a message When everything comes apart (Talk to me face to face) (Talk to me face to face) (Everything comes apart) I'll leave a message When everything comes apart I remember cats on fire Gasoline a burning spiral Standing underneath the night Fighting back with all my might Empty cans and charred remains Find them in the heat of day On the top of dead man's hill This is what I know of shame forever Explain Request ×
