Format, The - Seven Digit Pin Code Lyrics






They found my body near the river
Now all the people in our town, they think it was your father
I didn't get your consent, but that's how I make my rent
The void; it's hard to make a friend
When it's too hard to put down the lense
And so, I float

Drifted 'bout 50 miles past Jamestown
I was recovered in the more where I floated onto shore
While the James was good to me,
And the barbed wire, that's another story
It's hard to rest in peace
When you can't get no sympathy

And so...

I can't seem to keep my mind off that inght
The way that you laughed with all your friends
Beneath the bar lights.
I couldn't help but hate you
So I followed you, I followed you home

And oh, take off your clothes, stand by the window
So I can see the scar that sits below your naval
And oh, with the Rosary, I wish that was me
How I wish I could rest upon your chest forever
I float, I float, I float.

I wish that I believed in heaven
I can't thank Sunday School for that.
Send me a seven digit pin code
Let me repent, let me believe.

We learn it all, once we could comprehend
The folding of our hands, the bending of our knees
And the Hial Mary's along the bedside
My innocence must have caught his eye
Enough to ruin the last 16 years of my life
It's so hard to repent
When you've been giving no such reason to believe

I took off my clothes, stood by the window
Well don't you see the same scar sits below my naval?
And oh, but it's there for life,
Better yet, the lack thereof
How I wish I could come back as a piece of jewelry.

And oh, I float
I float, I float.

  1. I.... a....

    They found my body near the river
    Now all the people in our town, they think it was your father
    I didn't get your consent, but that's how I make my rent
    The void; it's hard to make a friend
    When it's too hard to put down the lense
    And so, I float
    Drifted 'bout 50 miles past Jameson
    I was recovered in the more where I floated onto shore
    While the James was good to me,
    And the barbed wire, that's another story
    It's hard to rest in peace
    When you can't get no sympathy
    And so...
    I can't seem to keep my mind off that night
    The way that you laughed with all your friends
    Beneath the bar lights.
    I couldn't help but hate you
    So I followed you, I followed you home
    And oh, take off your clothes, stand by the window
    So I can see the scar that sits below your naval
    And oh, with the Rosary, I wish that was me
    How I wish I could rest upon your chest forever
    I float, I float, I float.
    I wish that I believed in heaven
    I can't thank Sunday School for that.
    Send me a seven digit pin code
    Let me repent, let me believe.

    I float, I float.

  2. T.... ....

    The fakes wont find us here.

    T.... ....

    Hahaha.

  3. C.... ....

    Severely underrated.

  4. L.... B....

    Oh. I see.

  5. S.... 1....

    Might be my favorite Format song

  6. J.... P....

    I hesitated looking into the b sides album. Biggest mistake ever

    J.... P....

    biiiig mistake. The Format is a different kind of listening experience. Definitely not an album band. All the best gems are in the low quality live recordings, the demos, the impromptu acoustic sessions, etc...

  7. H.... ....

    Fuck this is so good

  8. A.... ....

    Category: Pets & Animals
    yeah...

    A.... ....

    Yeah I really don't remember choosing a category at all, and certainly not that one. *shrug*

  9. e.... ....

    Nate Ruess writes the most interesting goddamn lyrics.

    e.... ....

    And he sings them better than anyone else ever could!

  10. S.... ....

    idk i counted like 42 The format songs

    S.... ....

    I just compiled a list of all versions of all The Format songs and got to 75, with a possible 76th song missing.  But that only includes 35 original songs (with the possible lost 36th song) and 12 covers, the rest are all alternate versions.  There could be more out there though that were only released on their website, but those ones are practically impossible to track down unless someone saved one and uploaded it to Youtube.

  11. J.... M....

    matt is dumb

  12. K.... R....

    i don't think they're creepy...well,I DO want to be a coroner/mortician...Anyway,my favorite song ever.I relate to it in so many ways.I miss the Old Nate.

    K.... R....

    If you don't mind me asking, how do you relate to this song?

  13. D.... F....

    Why are there only 40 Format songs? :(

  14. c.... ....

    Ive read that this song was also influenced by a story Nate read about a vicar abusing a sunday school boy so he comitted suicide?
    awsome song btw ^^ xx
