Death Cab for Cutie - This Temporary Life

Death Cab for Cutie - This Temporary Life

The morning sun's about to break,
I'm looking in as you create someone.
You lift your head and brush your teeth,
and make your bed as if you won't sleep again,
You fix your hair and tie your shoes,
and tuck your shirt and now you feel new.

The glass is full, the glass is broke,
and every day dissolves and there's no hope
of ever leaving this temporary life.

You may ask yourself "is there anyone so alone?"
but there's no beep before the dial-tone
when you pick it up to see who called
if there is it's probably your mom

But, oh, the rising sun brings little cheer
to this city with the stolen name
and you're wondering whose bright idea
it was to pack your things and leave your friends
and move down here.

@EdwardCullen185 I honestly doubt it.

@7007513

ever heard of free downloads?!

[cohea4]

@7007513 yeah all of their stuff is so good; old and new. If I was going to get picky then I would say that I like their early stuff more, but it's splitting hairs. Great band.

@webcreeper2002 yes it is! sorry for the delay!!

[7007513]

@cohea4 it doesn't seem to be that well known :( anyway you should imagine what it's like to live in Argentina and not even be able to buy their cds :P all i can find is bad quality packaging and it's only their latest albums:( i wish i could get the rest!

[cohea4]

Why can't great songs like this be played on the radio?
