Death Cab For Cutie This Temporary Life Lyrics

This Temporary Life Lyrics

The morning sun's about to break 

I'm looking in as you create someone 

You lift your head and brush your teeth and make your bed 

As if you won't sleep again 



You fix your hair and tie your shoes 

And tuck your shirt and now you feel new 

The glass is full, the glass is broke 

And every day desolves and there's no hope 



Of ever leaving this temporary life 

Of ever leaving this temporary life 



Life, life, life, life 



You may ask yourself: is there anyone so alone 

That there's no beep before the dial tone 

When you pick it up to see who called 

If there is, its probably your Mom 



Oh the rising sun brings little change 

To this city with a stolen name 

And you're wondering who's bright idea 

It was to pack your things and leave your friends and move Down here
