Lyrics Bring On The Ending - Matt Pond PA

Bring On The Ending

half of all our lives are spent
encouraged by embarrassment
we hold our heads and stay asleep and cannot hear
in case nobody called
follow the prim ones
and sit on your hands
watch your step donЂ™t hardly move
speak in hushed tones
till they bring on the ending
they bring on the ending
as we file to get outside
with all the same coats on
here it is decemberЂ™s end
all our evaluations are in
the lowlandЂ™s goal
is less than low
itЂ™s good
so easy to have met them
august light the weightless fall
the hold of trucks
could carry us all
the hot exhaust
the thoughtless sleep
weЂ™d run and fall into the river
weЂ™d meet up at night
pretty late by the falls
talk too fast without regret
with headlights and stars
it was brighter than the daylight
bodies all backlight
unconscious though weЂ™re moving
stereo was screaming
weЂ™ll settle for stares
now un-glide with our hands
the basement is where we will live
and stick to the crowds
without ever speaking
we want it that easy
and donЂ™t get caught dancing
even if youЂ™re drinking
donЂ™t get caught dancing
