This is a Fire Door Never Leave Open(Live)

This is a Fire Door Never Leave Open (Live) - The Weakerthans[00:00:00]

Headlights race towards[00:00:26]

The corner of the dining room[00:00:28]

And half illuminate a face[00:00:33]

Before they disappear[00:00:37]

You breathe in forty years[00:00:41]

Of failing to describe a feeling[00:00:44]

I breathe out smoke against the window [00:00:49]

Trace the letters in your name[00:00:52]

Our letters sound the same[00:00:57]

Full of all our changing[00:01:00]

That isn't change at all[00:01:05]

All straight lines circle sometime[00:01:08]

You said somewhere there's a box[00:01:26]

Full of replacement parts to[00:01:29]

All the tenderness we've broken or let rust away[00:01:34]

Somewhere sympathy is more[00:01:41]

Than just a way of leaving[00:01:44]

Somewhere someone says I'm sorry [00:01:48]

Someone's making plans to stay[00:01:52]

So tell me it's okay[00:01:57]

Tell me anything or[00:02:00]

Show me there's a pull[00:02:04]

Unassailable[00:02:08]

That will lead you there from the dark alone[00:02:10]

To benevolence that you've never known[00:02:13]

Or you knew when you were four and can't remember[00:02:17]

Where a small knife tears out those sloppy seams[00:02:24]

And the silence knows what your silence means[00:02:28]

And your metaphors as mixed as you can make them[00:02:32]

Are linked like days together[00:02:38]

I still hear trains at night when the wind is right[00:03:27]

I remember everything lick and thread this string[00:03:34]

That will never mend you or tailor more[00:03:40]

Than a memory of a kitchen floor[00:03:43]

Or the fire-door that we kept propping open[00:03:47]

And I love this place the enormous sky[00:03:54]

And the faces hands that I'm haunted by[00:03:58]

So why can't I forgive these buildings[00:04:02]

These frameworks labeled home[00:04:08]

Headlights race towards the corner of the dining room[00:04:26]

And half illuminate a face before they disappear[00:04:34]
