We Laugh Indoors lyrics

Artist  : Death Cab For Cutie 
Song : We Laugh Indoors
 


When we laugh indoors, the blissful tones bounce
off the walls and fall to the ground. 

Peel the hardwood back to let them loose from
decades trapped and listen so still. 

This city is my home, construction noise all day
long and gutter punks are bumming change. 

So i breed thicker skin and let me lustrous coat
fill in and i'll never admit that 

I loved you guenivere. 

  

I've always fallen fast with too much trust in
the promise that

"no one's ever been here, so you can quell those
wet fears." 

I want purity, i must have it here right now.


But don't you get me started now. 

  

December's chill comes late, the days get darker
and we wait for this direness to pass. 

There are piles on the floor of artifacts from
dresser drawers, and i'll help you pack.
