Bulletproof Weeks

Album: Some Mad Hope (2007)

  • Somewhere in between
    The beginning and the end
    September took the tourist
    And settled in for good

    You could hear the trains again
    Brooklyn girls in scarves
    Summer left and no one said a word

    We'd open your window
    Stay in your bed
    All day 'til the street lights came on

    [Chorus]
    So what happened to bulletproof weeks in your arms?
    What happened to feeling cheap radio songs?
    What happened to thinking the world was flat?
    What happened to that?

    Up on 59th street
    Right before the rain
    Lovers catching taxis going downtown

    I'm talking to what's left of you
    Watching what I say
    Counting all the freckles on your perfect face

    You open your window
    And I stay on your bed
    Just hoping that right words will come

    [Chorus: x2]

    Its all gone, love, it's all wrong

    [Chorus] Writer/s: MATT NATHANSON, TROY VERGES
