Eyelashes! - Disaster Zone Lyrics

They built a dozen bridges
From here out to the eastern islands
While you were home in your armchair
While you were sprawled out in the bedroom

We stayed in the city
Just long enough to sort out all our addictions
While you were home in your armchair
While you were sprawled out in the bedroom

Blood on your expensive denim jacket
Scents soaking into the seams of a suit
With a certain sort of casual elegance
Parasites live off the city

There's a place in your head
Just round enough to fit in all the mistaken suggestions
From the friends who had it better than you have
Since you can remember

I was born in the disaster zone
You were born before the golden age
I was born in the disaster zone
You were born before the golden age

Spending all your money
Just to keep your cycles running
You're a terrible liar
But a good fit for the city

They built a dozen bridges
From here out to the eastern islands
While you were home in your armchair
While you were sprawled out in your bedroom

There's a place in your head
Just round enough to fit in all the mistaken suggestions
From the friends who had it better than you have
Since you can remember

I was born in the disaster zone
You were born before the golden age
I was born in the disaster zone
You were born before the golden age
I was born in the disaster zone
You were born before the golden age
I was born in the disaster zone
You were born before the golden age

My heart has overcome me
And I must demolish it now
Why have you failed me?
I'm tired of seeing the same old faces and names
And wearing the same old grooves in my brain

Is there a name you use
For the pale blues
Coating all your walls?
You read the surface of things
Until gravity falls
Until the surfaces sing
The music of symphony halls

Is there a word you'd choose
When you pay what's overdue?
You speak in similes
When you speak to me
Hardware and soft-bowed strings
And ancient melodies
I can't unfollow you

Shining like the foreheads of angels
When they fall from grace
Shining like the foreheads of angels
When they fall from grace
Shining like the foreheads of angels
When they fall from grace
Shining like the foreheads of angels
When they fall from grace
Shining like the foreheads of angels
When they fall from grace
Shining like the foreheads of angels
When they fall from grace
Shining like the foreheads of angels
When they fall from grace
Shining like the foreheads of angels
When they fall from grace
Shining like the foreheads of angels
When they fall from grace
Shining like the foreheads of angels
