Motion City Soundtrack - Her Words Destroyed My Planet Lyrics






Maybe you were right after all...
Maybe I'm just bad news...
I've been drowning in memories
Call it residual blues.
I fell asleep watching Veronica Mars again.
(Hey!)

I still futz with that tourniquet,
and tried to squeeze on your dreams.
Slung it on- it's a perfect fit.
What do you suppose that means?

My parents keep asking when you're planning on coming around.

If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet.
I stall before I start.
I stall before I start anything at all.

Got a job at uncommon grounds,
I finally shaved off that beard.
I sold my Xbox to Jimmy down the street.
Hell, I even quit smoking weed.
I'm taking an online course- I'm learning to speak Japanese.

If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet.
I stall before I start.
I stall before I start anything at all.

The things that used to mean so much to me...
have gone the way of dinosaurs, hopes and dreams, and everything.
All I want for you to be is happy or something...
I guess anything is better than the time you spent hoping I'd get it sorted out.

I sent you a post card
But the post office sent it back...
They said the buildings been torn down.
I just miss what I thought we would have.

If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet.
It's all my fucking fault!

If we'd only stayed together
I might not have fallen apart
But the words you served destroyed my planet.
I stall before I start.
I stall before I start anything at all.

    I like the music video’s message: kids feel pressure to higher and higher expectations in school while watching and comparing themselves to the advancements and success of the adults, and they are expected to think so heavily about their futures, but they’re just kids. So they destroy the people who put them down. Essentially every adult big shot out there will eventually be replaced by someone better.

    fuck you. MCS doesn't have a pr team. They do everything themselves. They've written all their own songs. They can do whatever they want and if a fan doesn't like it, then they're not a true fan.

    P.... P....

    +Ball Tazer lmao you don't have to like everything a band does to be a "true fan," you sound like those middle schoolers who wear fingerless gloves and are really defensive about it
