Each Year Lyrics - The Rhumb Line - Ra Ra Riot

Come on, force it down 

I'm imagining 

Come on, force it down 

I'm imagining 

Imaging a place where homes are built on frames 

And where they plant new bulbs along our graves 

With the fall each year 

With the fall each year 

Each year 

And if you think you might 

Yes, but if it's not so bright 

But if you're a part of my 

Whole life 

Silhouettes in a window frame 

Better run if it's Boo's old man 

He won't know if you're white 

Oh, in the night 

Coverin' a fault with 

Trials and coy displays 

Coverin' a fault with 

Trials and coy displays 

If it isn't worth the time to 

Find out how we go 

About recalling all the ways 

And the reasons are for 

With the fall each year 

With the fall each year 

Each year 

And if you think you might 

Yes, but if it's not so bright 

But if you're a part of my 

Whole life 

Silhouettes in a window frame 

Better run if it's Boo's old man 

He won't know if you're white 

Oh, in the night 

Vapor lamps in a parking light 

You can't see when it's much too far 

All that mist in your eyes 

Oh, in the night 

80 years isn't enough time 

50 more isn't more enough 

Oh 

To right the wrongs 

What you're hiding in your back yard 

Is turning innocence to apathy 

And accusations at another man 

Oh 

'Cause you don't have a prayer 

To put your life into a Christian's hands 

Never mind what your 

Daughter is taught in school 

What she remembers is 

What she has learned from you 

Silhouettes in a window frame 

Better run if it's Boo's old man 

He won't know if you're white 

Oh, in the night 

Vapor lamps in a parking lot 

You can't see when it's much too far 

All that mist in your eyes 

Oh, in the night
