La Dispute - Fairmount Lyrics
(Oh crashing airplane, where were you the day she left?)Underneath the laughs there lies a needThat nobody is getting.And an honesty that doesn't stretch far enoughTo show us all how much this will mean to us, my dear.And when we're old we'll tell ourselves that we didEverything that we could to save this.But now--we do nothing.I've slept for twenty years, but I've acted strong at leastIf you're leaving again, then you're leaving againAnd you're gone.And I feel nothing anymore, so just keep walking awayThirty-thousand steps, I'll watch you for every second and never feel alone.I've been sleepingFor at least the last two yearsMy dear, my princess, my sister, my lover, my friend.I made you a bed of thorns for every rose you ever left outside my door, That's all you ever left me.Lay your scars out in rows, Lay your scars out in rows, Lay your scars out in rowsTo show me what I've done to you.Lay your scars out in rows, Lay your scars out in rows, It was my weakness that couldn't save us.So lay your scars out in rows, So lay your scars out in rows, So lay your scars out in rows for me.We were one, and what are we now?(Act strong, at leastAnd don't turn around.If I'm leaving, then I'm leaving, and I'm leaving, and I'm gone.)We move as one.
