we drove these streets heads to shoulders
existing to tell the tales of letting go
and now we're strangled to tears on the fallback farewell
its all in our heads
the faint whispers
i tried to tell myself when its already over
that the reasons found decoys
and this is holding me back
as if to say what you thought you heard
i wish i did
i don't want to feel this pull as this city becomes home without you
existing to tell the tales of letting go
and now we're strangled to tears on the fallback farewell
its all in our heads
the faint whispers
i tried to tell myself when its already over
that the reasons found decoys
and this is holding me back
as if to say what you thought you heard
i wish i did
i don't want to feel this pull as this city becomes home without you

And you exist to tell yourself again and again the tales of having to let go of someone that these roads remind you of, how it brought you tears to say goodbye. But you had to say goodbye; it was the fallback, the plan that you execute when all other plans fail.
It's all in your head, the faint whispers that you hear in the back of your mind convincing you that s/he can still be yours. But the reasons you would use in trying to get him/her back found decoys. You know the reasons are there, but these decoys are holding you back from being able to see those reasons.
As if to say, what you thought you heard, and you wish you had said it. It could be, "I love you." The healing words; because you thought you heard it when you were with him/her. In fact, you're probably sure of it.
But either way, you don't want to feel like this place is your home unless you're with him/her, because you are so in love with this person, that if this place manages to become home for you without him/her, you'll feel it wasn't love for real. And I suppose that's something to be afraid of.
I don't know. That took awhile, but I love this song, and I love the mood it has given me these past few years.
"we drove these streets heads to shoulders
existing to tell the tales of letting go"
they drive from place to place and almost all of their song are about "letting go" and broken hearts and stuff.
