Expo '86 Lyrics - Transatlanticism - Death Cab For Cutie

Sometimes I think this cycle never ends 

We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again 

And it seems by the time that I have figured what it's worth 

The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse. 

But if I move my place in line I'll lose. 

And I have waited, the anticipation's got me glued. 

I am waiting for something to go wrong. 

I am waiting for familiar resolve. 

Sometimes it seems that I don't have the skills to recollect 

The twists and turns of plots that took us from lovers to friends 

I'm thinking I should take that volume back up off the shelf 

And crack it's weary spine and read to help remind myself

But if I move my place in line I'll lose. 

And I have waited, the anticipation's got me glued. 

I am waiting for something to wrong 

I am waiting for familiar resolve 

I am waiting for another repeat 

Another diet fed by crippling defeat 

And I am waiting for that sense of relief 

I am waiting for you to flee the scene 

As if you held in your hand the smoking gun 

And on the floor lay the one you said you loved. 

And it's strange 

They are basically the same 

So I don't ask names anymore.

Sometimes I think this cycle never ends 

We slide from top to bottom and we turn and climb again 

And it seems by the time that I have figured what it's worth 

The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse. 

The squeaking of our skin against the steel has gotten worse [Repeat: x2]
