Pity And Fear

death cab for cutie - pity and fear






i have such a envy for this stranger lying next to me 

who awakes in the night and slips out into the pre-dawn light 

with no words, a clean escape, no promises or messes made 

and chops it all up to mistake, mistake, mistake 



and there are no tears 

just pity and fear 

no vast ravine 

right in between 



a storm at sea the bow cracked and i was capsizing 

and i sunk below where i swore i would never go 

if you can't stand in place you can't tell there's walking away 

from who remains, who stays, who stays, who stays 



and there are no tears 

just pity and fear 

no vast ravine 

right in between 



spare no tears 

just pity and fear 

and i recall 

the push more than the fall 

the push more than the fall
