歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] Found it in the lining Of a wool coat dying Smelling like old rain And a name I can't explain A Maxell ninety-minute shell With a story left to tell Handwritten in blue ink Right on the jagged brink [Pre-Chorus] I put the plastic in the tray To hear the ghosts begin to play The tape hiss starts to rise Behind my tired eyes [Chorus] Who were you then? Before the world grew cold and thin Was this a heart you tried to win? Oh, I'm listening now High above the city sound To the secret that you found Twenty years underground [Verse] Track four is a slow burn Waiting for a love to return You can hear the needle skip On a heart you let slip Did you wear this on the train? Did you hum it in the rain? You’re a stranger in my room Breaking through the gloom [Pre-Chorus] I feel the static on my skin Wondering where you might have been The piano starts to weep While the rest of us sleep [Chorus] Who were you then? Before the world grew cold and thin Was this a heart you tried to win? Oh, I'm listening now High above the city sound To the secret that you found Twenty years underground [Bridge] It’s a long way down From the top of the spool Were you a genius? Or just a beautiful fool? I can hear your breath In the gaps of the song Where did it all go? Where did it go wrong? (Building tension) Are you still out there? Do you remember the beat? Do you recognize the ghost Walking down your street? Is the jacket too small? Is the memory too tall? Did you lose it all? Did you lose it all? [Breakdown] (Fuzz guitars surging) (Drums hitting harder) (Voice turning to grit) [Chorus] WHO WERE YOU THEN? Before the world grew cold and thin Was this a heart you tried to win? Oh, I'm listening now High above the city sound To the secret that you found Twenty years underground [Post-Chorus] Just a magnetic ghost The one I love the most Just a magnetic ghost In a thrift store coat [Outro]
