Death Cab For Cutie - State Street Residential Lyrics






Holding fast until the rent checks wear thin
because it hasn't sunk in... so far.

Well it's a drab routine, the dust starts building
until it's hard to come clean.

Then the months stack up to an addict crutch
As if the drink weren't enough
A stagger cannot compete
There's no charm in being residential state street

And if I was sober
could I kill caution and stay over
And if I was sober
would I rip hearts apart like paper?

I wish you could know better than you show
with parted lips pointed down
That the whiskey soothes more than you could ever do.

And if I was sober
Could I kill caution and stay over?
And if I was sober
Would I rip hearts apart like paper?

What a difference it made
What a difference it made

And if I was sober
Could I kill caution and stay over?
And if I was sober
Would I rip hearts apart like paper?

What a difference it made
What a difference it made

    Holding fast until the rent checks wear thin
    Because it hasn't sunk in, so far
    Well it's a drab routine, the dust starts building
    Until it's hard to come clean

    Then the months stack up to an addict crutch
    As if the drink weren't enough
    A stagger cannot compete
    There's no charm in being residential state street

    [Chorus]
    And if I was sober
    Could I kill caution and stay over
    And if I was sober
    Would I rip hearts apart like paper?

    I wish you could know better than you show
    With parted lips pointed down
    That the whiskey soothes more than you could ever do

    [Chorus]

    What a difference it made
    What a difference it made

    How old do you think the Beatles are?

    R.... S....

    Ben Gibbard is more John than Paul? And they were so much older then, they're so much younger than that now...

    R.... S....

    I feel like Ben Gibbards voice sounds more like built to spill than the Beatles
