Silver Couplets - The Districts

Silver couplets are underneath the branches

Of a wilted maple, raking up the leaves

Trying find my head, must’ve been out here

Buried it with the memories of mom and dad

Slipped through one of my hands, never got too bad

But this one’s worse

Still remember jumping in the leaves

We were merely children, not anything more

Just learned to drink away our pain

And it’s a shame, heard you rode in the back seat

All the way to long beach

Remember the days you were driving

You and I were in a mess

I guess we all fall to the vices, we never wanted

Find some solace, at least a little piece of mind

I know I’m wasting away this time

If you focus hard enough on the smoke, from my cigarette

I think that I see heaven

I can’t blame you for the things that occurred

Cause they’re all in my head

I know that’s wrong, I know thats wrong now

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say

Or I’d hoped you’d say

Silver couplets are underneath the branches

Of wilted maples, raking up the leaves

Trying to find my head, must’ve been out here

Buried with the memories

Slipped through my hands, but I know this one’s worse

Oh I know, I know

We all fall down, all tumbling down

Can’t seem to catch your fall

And it’s a shame

Heard you rode in the back seat all the way

Remember the days you were driving

But you and I were in a mess

I guess we all fall to the vices, we never wanted

Find some solace, at least a little piece of mind

I know I’m wasting away this time

If you focus hard enough on the smoke from my cigarette

I think that I see heaven

I can’t blame you for the things that occurred

Cause it’s all in my head

But I know that’s wrong, I know that’s wrong now

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say

Or I’d hoped you’d say

I can’t blame for the things that occurred

Cause they’re all in my head

And I know that’s wrong, you know that’s wrong

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say

I’d hoped you’d say

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say

I’d hoped you’d say

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I say

I’d hoped you’d say

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I’d say

I’d hoped you’d say

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I’d say

I’d hoped you’d say

And I’m sorry, at least that’s what I think I’d say

I’d hoped you’d say
