Classic Crime, The - Driftwood Lyrics
Every whisper is a gunshot
In a crowded terminal
Every cry for help so quiet
It is barely audible
Every callous numbing feeling
Instead of salt on all your wounds
You pour well whiskey on your scars
But you're not hard
And no one sees who you are
So you ward off the drunken stares
At last call
But you've got what I want
Call me a name if it feels good
I'll be the break where your ache has stood
All of your failures are widowers
But I'm still right here
And you're not hard
I can see who you are
I'll work hard
To bring you back to the start
You've got what I want
As the driftwood whittles down
You see the beauty that it had
Carried through the open ocean
'Til it finely reached the sand
Where I came upon it's sadness
Saw the glory it contained
You let me cut you slowly
Until only you remained

Best song on the album
I should actually remember when I say "oh okay, got it," spent forever looking for like two songs lmao
The words are so hard to follow D: love the song tho
Does the music skip at 16 seconds?
Nah, it's a chord change, haha
Yes it does. Tripped me out... lol. Now I need to go check if that made it onto the album without them noticing. Yikes!

All of your failures are widowers, but I'm still right here. Chills.
