Some things are blue and sudden

All strung out traced and walking along the waterfront

The lights were talking about sunrise

In the middle of the night

Cold tracing on the subway

Night air gone stale and wrapped in a shallow tomb

The lights they start to stretch around us

As the train started down the tracks

(Bridge):

Friends are closing bars

And stumbling for dying stars and

They're all just a little too tired to say

That they're

(Chorus X4):

Trying to get home

Days fall and then they own you

Memories start to end before they ever really get to start

The sky it crumbles down like ashes

Scattered out in patterns on the bay

Days rising like a poet

We pack our things and we lie about staying in touch

The road it rambles out before us

And our heads begin to roam

(Bridge)

(Chorus)

Some things are blue and sudden

All strung out traced and walking along the waterfront

The lights were talking about sunrise

In the middle of the night

(Bridge)

(Chorus)

Some things are blue and sudden
