Contrast and Compare Lyrics
Contrast and compare
Between the busy ones
And the ones that don’t care
Until there is no one
That you really know
So I drift through these days
Of appointments and promises made
They will all end up broken
And quickly replaced
Weeks are slow, days drag on
Even practice and parties seem long
But I found myself going
I guess there’s nothing to do
Oh well
Group of kids, line of cars
More will show up after the bars close
There’s this boredom that drowns everything
Bottles break, music plays
Conversations competing for space
I look for a corner or a quieter room
There’s no heat in this house
I can’t breath with these words in my mouth
But I’m not going to say them
Yeah, I’ve made that mistake before
On the stairs, she grabs my arm
Says, "Whats up, where you been
Is something wrong?"
I try to just smile
And say, "Everything’s fine"
so relatable, its scary
i love the ending.
so true. and that guitars solo just tear my heart :,-(
one of the best songs from letting off..
This song perfectly describes my life. Bright eyes is so amazing. Conor can really write beautiful lyrics.
there’s no heat in this house i can’t breath with these words in my mouth but i’m not going to say them yeah, i’ve made that mistake before
i just love the way they do the last part, whos singing with conor enywayse?
the guy just tells you about all that isn't right, like how he's jsut going through the motions.
and then he says 'Everything's fine.'
I like it.
i love this whole song so much. one of my favorites from them....this is me for the past two years...conor is incredible....
the part on the stairs is so familiar..... ive had that happen to me so many times
wow. amazing. the last two lines are so simple yet say so much. and the scream at the end fits perfectly. it's like he's letting out how he really feels and what he wants to say..
