Death Cab For Cutie - Title and registration Lyrics






The glove compartment is inaccurately named
And everybody knows it.
So i'm proposing a swift orderly change.

Cause behind its door there's nothing to keep my fingers warm
And all i find are souvenirs from better times
Before the gleam of your taillights fading east
To find yourself a better life.

I was searching for some legal document
As the rain beat down on the hood
When i stumbled upon pictures i tried to forget
And that's how this idea was drilled into my head

Cause it's too important
To stay the way it's been

There's no blame for how our love did slowly fade
And now that it's gone it's like it wasn't there at all
And here i rest where disappointment and regret collide
Lying awake at night

There's no blame for how our love did slowly fade
And now that it's gone it's like it wasn't there at all
And here i rest where disappointment and regret collide
Lying awake at night (up all night)
When i'm lying awake at night.

  10. M.... A....

    My favorite song forever

  11. N.... D....

    This song makes me SO nostalgic for High School! So SAD, so comforting!

  12. C.... O....

    Gives me so many good memories

  13. D.... R....

    I love this song

  14. C.... I....

    I thought that Ben Gibbard was ALWAYS the lead singer!!  

    Who was this English bloke?

    C.... I....

    lol  I don't know if you're kidding or not    solid

    C.... I....

  15. B.... G....

    Theh did surgery on a Ben gibnard

  16. R.... A....

    This song reminds of Obstacles by Syd Matters

  17. E.... F....

    I was searching for some legal document
    As the rain beat down on the hood
    When i stumbled upon pictures i tried to forget
    And that's how this idea was drilled into my head

    Cause it's too important
    To stay the way it's been

    There's no blame for how our love did slowly fade
    And now that it's gone it's like it wasn't there at all
    And here i rest where disappointment and regret collide
    Lying awake at night .

  18. d.... ....

    I can’t believe this album is already 15 years old!!

  19. F.... S....

    Why does it sound like there is a tape error of some sort here?

  20. J.... ....

    This is one of their best songs but omg the 360p and video encoder do it no justice. This sounds awful. We need a new version uploaded, this is tragic.

  21. L.... E....

    The glove compartment is inaccurately named
    And everybody knows it
    So I'm proposing a swift orderly change

    'Cause behind its door, there's nothing to keep my fingers warm
    And all I find are souvenirs from better times
    Before the gleam of your taillights fading east
    To find yourself a better life

    I was searching for some legal document

    And now that it's gone, it's like it wasn't there at all
    And here I rest where disappointment and regret collide
    Lying awake at night, up all night
    When I'm lying awake at night

  22. G.... E....

    I remember first hearing this song when i was 15 and learning to drive. I am now 30 and still dig the shit out of this music. It's all good vibes. Always.

    death cab never fails to put out that poignant shit. you could be in the best mood ever but after an album or two youre contemplating the best way to tie a knot.

    bravo

  31. S.... C....

    I came from 2003, where The O.C. and some girl's MySpace page looping this song had me chance upon what would become my favorite band. This was also the soundtrack to my adventures in FFXI and my first love.

    F.... ....

    Peter Nester I'm pretty sure it's like that for effect in the video, but take it how you will

  50. B.... L....

    I cry every time i listen to this song. It brings back memories from the good old days, before my parents divorced.

    B.... L....

    Same for me.

    B.... L....

    J&T Edwards I'm still young but this is my happy sad song I cry because I miss the better days but I'm happy thinking of those memories 😢☺

    B.... L....

    I relate so much with what you're saying, when I listen to this I cry to the point that I'm holding my breath, but I'm also happy...so many emotions wrapped into a beautiful song

    B.... L....

    Virginia Reed Agreed.

  51. B.... L....

  53. r.... a....

    i really want Tom DeLonge to cover this song

    r.... a....

    Drunk? Or sober? Jk if he sang it sober in the studio he could pull it off. Especially with how he pronounces his words in his music it would be decent.

    c.... ....

    No it's not, in fact it's very plain, average, and basic

    c.... ....

    Yeah, those sound like they'd come from the same Pandora station.

    c.... ....

    @R0b0tR0ck Basics work on all lvls, tho in my case it's mostly nostalgia...

    c.... ....

    @R0b0tR0ck Except Death Cab is better than those other artists.

  94. A.... P....

    that looks like it hurts...

  95. M.... ....

    Some guys have all the luck. I was born with glass bones and paper skin.. Every morning I broke my legs.. And every afternoon I break my arms.. At night, I lie awake in agony until my heart attacks put me to sleep.
