I Was A Kaleidoscope Lyrics - The Photo Album - Death Cab For Cutie

I put on my overcoat 

And walked into winter 

My teeth chattered rhythms 

And they were grouped in twos or threes 

Like a Morse code message was sent from me to me 

And cars on slippery slopes were stuck 

People pushing through their mittens 

As I was beginning 

To feel it soaking through my shoes 

Getting colder with every step 

I took to your apartment, dear

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

And I was a kaleidoscope 

The snow on my lenses distorting the image 

Of what was only one of you 

And I didn't know which one to address 

As all your lips moved 

And this is when I forget to breathe 

And all the things I scripted 

They sound unfounded 

And it's the look that your giving me 

That tells me exactly what you are thinking: 

"This ain't working out" 

They got their mothers worked in to a panic 

Sledding down hills into oncoming traffic 

And parents layered clothes until the children couldn't move 

and then left them outside until their noses were blue 

and I got left there, too 

Photos 

I put on my overcoat 

And walked into winter 

My teeth chattered rhythms 

And they were grouped in twos or threes 

Like a Morse code message was sent from me to me
