Death Cab For Cutie - We Looked Like Giants

Lyrics:

God bless the daylight, the sugary smell of springtime
Remembering when you were mine
In a still suburban town

When every thursday i'd brave those mountain passes
And you'd skip your early classes
And we'd learn how our bodies worked

God damn the black night with all its foul temptations
I've become what i always hated
When i was with you then

We looked like giants in the back of my grey subcompact
Fumbling to make contact
As the others slept inside

And together there
In a shroud of frost, the mountain air
Began to pass through every pane of weathered glass
And i held you closer than anyone would ever guess

Do you remember the JAMC?
And reading aloud from magazines
I don't know about you but i swear on my name they could smell it on me
I've never been too good with secrets
No

And together there
In a shroud of frost, the mountain air
Began to pass through every pane of weathered glass
And i held you closer

I'm 15 and I absolutely love Death Cab for Cutie. Why ? Their music is perfect poetry and I think it's beautiful. And you're the one to talk about us "angsty teenagers". How mature to tell us to go cut ourselves.

[MrKittybiteme]

Wow, so I come here to listen to a fantastic band, but I end up reading rude things people say, telling people to eff of, go cut themselves, etc. Really guys? Really? Obviously YouTube is turning into a place where people who like the same things come together.... and MOUTH OFF to everybody. What a major buzzkill...! Just listen to the music and stop acting like you know everything about everybody!

more than the people writing useless, hatefull shit here, i hate all the people thinking they should answer them and talk sense into them...

[LaurenRMann7]

My god, this song is wonderful...so full of wonderful passion from second number one! Death Cab produces poetic genious! 

[funnyish101]

[tigeranddove]

[HangingJustChilling]

[HeroWolfLink]

Sounds like most of the people here read ''Emo'' rather than ''Poetry''.

They obviously only know the words ''I can wait'' rather than ''I love you''.

[BlasterTheMaster]
