Perpetual Hearts

from Wrong Numbers by Wrong Numbers

/

lyrics

perpetual hearts in my eyes
the things we worked for are fully realized
every night i ride the same bus home
steady as 135 on a metronome

like all the ashes i tapped into the river
(all we are, all we are)
like all the snowflakes that fell through the winter
(is changing forms of what we once were)
like counting rings on the trunk of a tree
(the body is gone but there remains a memory)
speak it to yourself and speak it quietly

what if i never get out of bed?
all the dreams i have determine i'll wake up dead
and every time you talk it makes my ears ring
like you've been talking over every word i sing

like the bitter saliva i spit into the water
(all we are, all we are)
like all the raindrops that fell through the summer
(is changing forms of what we once were)
like whispering something into the night sky
(waves of sound disintegrate and die)
speak it to yourself and speak it quietly)
