For What Reason

作詞:Gibbard
this wont be the last youll hear from me:
its just the start.
i hope that he keeps
you up for weeks like you did to me.
i will hold a candle up to you to singe your skin.
brace yourself: im bent with bitterness.
when your apologies fail to ring true,
(youre) so slick with that sarcastic slew
or phrases like i thought you knew,
while keeping me in hot pursuit.
tracing the plot finds skin touching skin
(abscence follows).
in the end, i win every time as ink remains.
sour tastes prevail as you play back the tape
machine.
when your apologies fail to ring true,
(youre) so slick with that sarcastic slew
or phrases like i thought you knew,
while keeping me in hot pursuit.
tracing the plot finds skin touching skin
(abscence follows).
