40 Mark Strasse Lyrics - Port Of Morrow - The Shins

Is it all so very simple 

And horribly complex 

You're suffering 

And there's nothing coming next 

Your mom smokes in the kitchen 

Her voice a cutting drown 

They're creeping out, you pass the bar 

Your father's second home 

That leaves you on your own 

Nights I'd often watch you 

Float across the ground 

Out the gate to the motorway 

What secrets have you found?

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

You had to know I wanted 

Something from you then 

Too young to know just what it was 

Something more than a friend 

Is that you at the end 

Well, you play in the street at night 

You blow like a broken kite 

My girl, you're giving up the fight 

Are you gonna let these Americans 

Put another dent in your life? 

My mother says your dirty 

They're gonna find you dead 

But have you got that final chapter 

Written in your head 

Photos 

Cause every single story 

Is a story about love 

Both the overflowing cup 

And the painful lack thereof 

You got the heart of a dove 

But you play in the street at night 

You blow just like a broken kite 

My girl, you're giving up the fight 

You'll have to lose all them childish notions 

If you're gonna let these American boys 

Put another dent in your life 

You play in the street at night 

You blow just like a broken kite 

My girl, you're giving up the fight 

You'll have to lose all them childish notions 

Are you gonna let these Americans 

Put another dent in your life?
