Lyrics Matt Pond PA

Matt Pond PA

Starting

We could start tonight, slide back the deadbolts

Let the pictures down, they hold no life

And if you've got some faith then you are faithful

You fall down on your face, you got a face full

Oh, we could start tonight, pull down the plastic

Light the gasoline, we'll race the lines

And if you want to live then go on living

If you want to give, you've got to get it right

A ceiling was beyond the world I could afford

You'll never knock your head or chip your teeth

If you wanted some more

Or just keep dancing with your chin and vacant stare

The boundless worth in every movement

With you seated in your chair

And here we are, saints and sightseers

A light bulb phosphorescent flash and then we're gone

And there we were, all full of fevers

A millions shakes until the leaves have drifted on

And here we are, far beyond reason

A million fires, a million holes cut in the sky

And there we were, saints and sightseers

One million runway lights to bring us through the night

We stand on ledges, kick our feet and throw our shoes

I tried to move a little closer, nothing left for me to lose

There is no argument to get me going hoarse

Misplaced my mind and now I do not have to worry 'bout before

Less talk, more arms, more legs, more swinging back and forth

Lights on, lights off, I know that I want to be adored

First hips then knees then feet, don't think anymore

Make no mistake, there's no blood when the words are gone

Less talk, more arms, more legs, more swinging back and forth

Lights on, lights off, we know we want to be adored

First hips then knees then feet, don't think anymore

Make no mistake, there's no blood when the words are gone
