Death Cab for Cutie — For What Reason

[Verse 1] This won't be the last you hear from me It's just the start I hope that he keeps you up for weeks Like you did to me [Verse 2] I will hold a candle up to you To singe your skin Brace yourself, I'm bent with bitterness And can't foresee [Pre-Chorus] When your apologies fail to ring true So slick with that sarcastic slew Of phrases like, "I thought you knew" While keeping me in hot pursuit [Chorus] Tracing the plot finds Skin touching skin Absence follows [Verse 3] In the end, I win every time As ink remains Sour tastes prevail as you play back The tape machine [Pre-Chorus] When your apologies fail to ring true So slick with that sarcastic slew Of phrases like, "I thought you knew" While keeping me in such hot pursuit [Chorus] Tracing the plot finds Skin touching skin Absence follows
