Drowning Shakespeare - For All The Great Poets текст песни

ive been down this road before
but tonight i cant stay between the lines
its whats under that skirt thats pushing us into the oncoming

& you were looking forward while i was looking backward
im a victim of your time
our eyes black as our hearts
& i was searching outward
and you were hoping someone would compromise in time
(but in this light they shine like a thousand candles lit in remembrance)

flashing headlights and horns fill the night
& all thats on my mind is getting you home
but for all the wrong reasons
or are they right?
or are they right?

how strange is it that after we collide
& bopnoes break through glass
that we still hold these smiles
we still hold these smiles

for all the wrong reasons

& you were looking forward while i was looking backward

im a victim of your time
our eyes black as our hearts
& i was searching outward
and you were hoping someone would compromise in time
(but in this light they shine like a thousand candles lit in remembrance)

in remembrance

remember these words
when you lose your touch
you know what they say
ill remember

its just the fact that all great poets will eventually kill themselves
& sweetheart you should become a poet too.

& you were looking forward while i was looking backward
im a victim of your time
our eyes black as our hearts
& i was searching outward
and you were hoping someone would compromise in time
(but in this light they shine like a thousand candles lit in remembrance)
