The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - Falling Apart So Slow

Don't turn your golden shoulders away
I've spoken to the strawberries
Who miss you all the same

So tell me we won't come undone again, again

Those muscle car boys
they know just what we need
Zero to anywhere is alright with me

Summer comes and summer dies
Kiss me like we're half alive
Say what I already know
Take my hand, we're falling apart so slow

I've said goodbye to all my missing friends
Told them I was losing just one more weekend

Winter comes and windows cry
Tell me I should come inside
Breathing but it's soft and low
Take my hand, we're falling apart so slow

Springtime comes we're still alive
Twist me to your twisted side

Crush your wrist to get a pulse
The world ends for everyone else

Don't tell me what you want to see
When all I lost was symmetry

You're laughing but it's long ago
Take my hand, we're falling apart so slow
