Lyrics Silver Couplets - The Districts

Silver Couplets

Silver couplets are underneath the branches
Of a wilted maple, raking up the leaves
Trying find my head, must’ve been out here
Buried it with the memories of mom and dad
Slipped through one of my hands, never got too bad
But this one’s worse
Still remember jumping in the leaves
We were merely children, not anything more
Just learned to drink away our pain
And it’s a shame, heard you rode in the back seat
All the way to long beach
Remember the days you were driving
You and I were in a mess
I guess we all fall to the vices, we never wanted
Find some solace, at least a little piece of mind
I know I’m wasting away this time
If you focus hard enough on the smoke, from my cigarette
I think that I see heaven
I can’t blame you for the things that occurred
Cause they’re all in my head
I know that’s wrong, I know thats wrong now
And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say
Or I’d hoped you’d say
Silver couplets are underneath the branches
Of wilted maples, raking up the leaves
Trying to find my head, must’ve been out here
Buried with the memories
Slipped through my hands, but I know this one’s worse
Oh I know, I know
We all fall down, all tumbling down
Can’t seem to catch your fall
And it’s a shame
Heard you rode in the back seat all the way
Remember the days you were driving
But you and I were in a mess
I guess we all fall to the vices, we never wanted
Find some solace, at least a little piece of mind
I know I’m wasting away this time
If you focus hard enough on the smoke from my cigarette
I think that I see heaven
I can’t blame you for the things that occurred
Cause it’s all in my head
But I know that’s wrong, I know that’s wrong now
And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say
Or I’d hoped you’d say
I can’t blame for the things that occurred
Cause they’re all in my head
And I know that’s wrong, you know that’s wrong
And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say
I’d hoped you’d say
And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say
I’d hoped you’d say
And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say
I’d hoped you’d say
And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I’d say
I’d hoped you’d say
And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I’d say
I’d hoped you’d say
And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I’d say
I’d hoped you’d say
