Fairmount Lyrics

(Oh crashing airplane, where were you the day she left?)

Underneath the laughs there lies a need

That nobody is getting.

And an honesty that doesn't stretch far enough

To show us all how much this will mean to us, my dear.

And when we're old we'll tell ourselves that we did

Everything that we could to save this.

But now--we do nothing.

I've slept for twenty years, but I've acted strong at least

If you're leaving again, then you're leaving again

And you're gone.

And I feel nothing anymore, so just keep walking away

Thirty-thousand steps,

I'll watch you for every second and never feel alone.

I've been sleeping

For at least the last two years

My 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 rows

To 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 least

And don't turn around.

If I'm leaving, then I'm leaving, and I'm leaving, and I'm gone.)

We move as one.
