Death Cab For Cutie The Remainder Lyrics

The Remainder Lyrics

His head was a city

of paper buildings

and the echoes that
remained

of old friends and lovers 

their features bleeding

together in his brain, oh ho ho



And once it starts

it was
harder to tell them apart, oh ho ho



He was always distracted

by the very mention

of an open door, oh ho ho



cuz he had
sworn

not to be what he'd been before



to be a remain remain
remain remainder		

to be a remain remain remain remainder



The television was snowing softly

as she hunted for her keys

She
said never envisioned

him the type of person

capable off such
deceit, oh ho ho



oh ho ho



And then they carried on
like long division

as it was clear with every page oh that they were



further away

from a solution that would play



without a remain remain remain remainder

without a remain remain remain
remainder

without a remain remain remain remainder

without a remain
remain remain remainder



he had sworn not to be what he'd been
before

to be the remain remain remain remainder

to be the remain
remain remain remainder

to be the remain remain remain remainder

to
be the remain remain remain remainder



to be the remain remain
remain remainder

to be the remain remain remain remainder
