I'm definitely keen on getting the lyrics to this right, so I'll change them up if people think that I got some parts of it wrong (I know I did, and I'm updating em), so lemme know! I also like the other theories about the song better than my original =P |

| oi, I'm going back over and listening to that part again and again, and I can't tell if its 'would' or 'wouldn't'. You were right about the other part though, its definitely 'landed on our broke down little car', so i changed that. | |

To me, this seems more like a song about breaking up, not so much hopeful as it is sad. "We treat mishaps like sinking ships and I know that I don't want to be out to drift Well I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips and they both tell me they were better than this" They get into small fights, which escalate, yet they don't want to end what they have. "We trade tit for tat like that for this and I don't think that there was an insult that was missed I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips and I'm very sorry" again with the fighting. "we fold and we had made a wish that we wouldn't be missed If one another just did not exist" This part seems like its saying that they are going to miss each other, so they wish that they had never existed together. |

I think I made a mistake, it should be "and directly on our broke down little car" I dunno, I thought it was boat cause that's kind of the theme of the album |
