Bright Eyes Train Underwater Lyrics

Train Underwater Lyrics



You were born inside of a raindrop 

And I watched you falling to your death 

And the sun, well she could not save you 

She'd fallen down too, now the streets are wet 

Body of water, toxic and timeless 

Atlantic ocean, New York skyline 

I always get lost, when I leave the village 

So I couldn’t come meet you in Brooklyn last night 

But I sing glory from my lowest

And I will say peace to the people I meet 

While the world waits for an explosion 

That instant of light that wipes the slate clean 

So don’t be fooled 

no don't get lied to 

Love was always cruel 

And don’t act strange, don’t be a stranger 

It happened to me now it’s happening to you 

But if you take that train underwater, 

then we could talk it through 



Well if I could tame all of my desires 

Wait out the weather, it howls in my brain 

Because it seems that it’s always changing 

The wind's indecision, the sorrowful rain 

Yeah, I was a postcard, I was a record 

I was a camera until I went blind 

And now I am riding all over this island 

Looking for something to open my eyes 

But I still sing glory from a high rise 

And I will say thanks if you’re pouring my drinks 

While the world waits for an explosion 

That moment in time when we'll be set free 



So don’t stay mad, just let some time pass 

And in the morning you’ll wake feeling new

And if I don’t come back 

I mean, if I get sidetracked 

It’s only cause I wanted to 

I'm keeping up with the moon on an all night avenue



(got that, make me cry)
