Flake Music - The Shins lyrics

rate me

Is it too near when they're nice?

Is that why there's sand in your eyes?

You should look up

Cause they're nothing at all

Blow me a kiss and I'll try

Wade through the mud

And return wearing white

Hanging like clothes on a line

And I'll wait for you

To spend all your time

Waiting like grapes on a vine

All of the goals you have yet to design

Wheels are off the track

I'm dripping everywhere

Eyes are in the clouds

While they pull the rug out

Pull me to the track

I'll give this a try

Down's the wrong way out

Fools himself to climb

But then you look back

And wonder why

What made it so hard to decide?

When the difference isn't black and white

Will the settled always have to fly for a home?

Is it too near when they're nice?

Is that why there's sand in your eyes?

Don't wait,

It's hard to get around when you're old

Blow me a kiss

And we'll try

We'll scale the walls

And go five miles high

We'll scale the walls

And go five miles high

Instrumental

Wheels are off the track

Dripping everywhere

Eyes are in the clouds

While they pull the rug out

Pull me to the track

I'll give this a try

Down's the wrong way out

Fools himself to climb

But then you look back

And wonder why

What made it so hard to decide?

When the difference isn't black and white

Will the settled always have to fly for a home?

Wheels are off the track

Dripping everywhere

Eyes are in the clouds

While they pull the rug out

Wheels are off the track
