Thursday - Understanding in a Car Crash Lyrics

splintered piece of glass
falls in the seat, gets caught
broken windows, open locks
reminders of the youth we lost
i tried so hard to look away from you
we followed white lines to the sunset
crash my car everyday the same way
time to let this pass
(the time it takes, the time it takes to let go)
time runs through our veins
(it starts and stops and starts and stops again)
we don't stand a chance in this threadbare time
(the time it takes the time it takes to let go)
time to let this pass
(the time it takes, the time it takes to let go)
staring at the setting sun, no reason to come back again
this 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

broken watch you gave me turns into, 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 comin'...
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
(the time it takes, the time it takes to let go)
time runs through our veins
(it starts and stops and starts and stops again)
we don't stand a chance in this threadbare time
(the time it takes the time it takes to let go)
time to let this pass
(the time it takes, the time it takes to let go)

staring at the setting sun, no reason to come back again
this 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 your broken window
when the cameras are on and the cameras click
we open up the lens and cant stop

staring at the setting sun, no reason to come back again
this twilight world in blue and white
the needle and the damage done

i don't want to feel this way forever
when the lights are on and the cameras click
we open up the lens to broken glass!!
staring at the setting sun,
(understanding!)
no reason to come back again
(in a crash!)
this twilight world in blue and white
(Understanding!)
the needle and the damage done
(never understand!)
i don't want to feel this way forever:
(understanding... In a car crash!)
a dead letter marks return to sender
(in a car crash!)
...in a crash!!!
