Lyrics: Thursday. Full Collapse. Understanding In A Car.

Splintered piece of glass
Falls in the seat and gets caught
Broken windows, open locks

Reminders of the youth we lost
In trying so hard to look away from you
We followed white lines into the sunset
I 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
The 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 broken watch you gave me turns into a 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 coming

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
The 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

Spinning hubcaps set the tempo
For the music of the broken window
The camera's on and the cameras click
We open up the lens and can't stop

Staring at the setting sun, no reason to come back again
The 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 and it's over
No reason to come back again in a flash

The twilight world in blue and white and I'll never
The needle and the damage done ever understand
I don't want to feel this way forever understanding
In a car crash, a dead letter marked return to sender in a car crash
In a crash
