Lyrics:

The work-a-days were propping the bar quietly erasing the week
and I was in a corner booth thinking (pretending to read)
about the impossibility of one to love unconditionally
and the words that we drive into the ground:
their repetition starts to thin their meaning.
Then everything got frighteningly still as they entered and intersected the floor
and I tried to choke my stare at perfection that others would kill for.
But all of the parts are the same on every face -- few variables change.
The differences pale when compared to the similarities they share.
Finally there is clarity and there is purpose after all.
But every night ends the same as I'm collapsing once more by your side.
Finally there is clarity: this tiny life is making sense
and every drop numbs the both of us, but I alone am staggering.

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE this song!

  • I whistle the ending at random times just walking around. DCFC is so good.

  • my god this song is amazing

  • This song is absolutely perfect. I listen to it at least four times a day.

  • @Yggdrasilgormandizer its one of my fav dcfc songs ever

  • From the moment I heard this song I fell in love with it. I have fallen asleep many times while listening to this song and I never tire of it. In fact, this is one of my all time favourite songs ever! Also, the guitar at the start sooo reminds me of the chocobo song from Final Fantasy V; total nerdgasm haha

  • @strokesfan1107 Now, go write a paper on it and it'll be an academically recognised term. I would do so myself, but I'd feel as if that were plagiarism.

  • whoa...this song just inspired me.

    I'm gonna go write a song.

  • This song (to me) is about doubting unconditional love because you're stuck in the same droll relationship most are, but then seeing that sort of perfection and being floored. There is also a parallel to fighting(debate) causing you to doubt whether you found that sort of love, and giving yourself up to the same old pacification just to be next to someone at the end of the night.

  • @cityofwhat it's like nostalgia-epiphany-euphoria.

    nostalphanoria?
