Pacific sun, you should have warned us, it gets so cold here.
And the night can freeze, before you set it on fire.
And our flares go unnoticed.
Diminished, faded just as soon as they are fired.
We are, we are, intrigued. We are, we are, invisible.
Oh, how we've shouted, how we've screamed,
Take notice, take interest, take me with you.
But all our fears fall on deaf ears.
Tonight, they're burning the roads they built to lead us to the light.
And blinding our hears with their shining lies,
While closing our caskets cold and tight. But I'm dying to live.
Pacific sun, you should have warned us, these heights are dizzying,
And the climb can kill you long before the fall.
And our trails go unmarked and unmapped and covered
Just as soon as they are crossed.
We are, we are, intriguing. We are, we are, desirable.
Oh how we've shouted, how we've screamed,
Take notice, take interest, take me with you.
But all our fears fall on deaf ears.
Tonight, they're burning the roads they built to lead us to the light.
And blinding our hearts with their shining lies,
While closing our caskets cold and tight. But I'm dying to live.

favorite dashboard line ever.
just listen to him.
that line is killer best.
and now that i've listened to it, it's become one of my favorite dashboard songs. it's SUCH a good song. really.
us young kids are nothing but invisible to everyone. the adults blind us with their lights of our future. What they don't know is that we won't live up to everything they want us to try to live up to... our attempt to be awesome is depressing and upsetting... we try, but we get dizzy trying...
we may have failed, but we take notice of where we have gotten to, and even though no one notice our accomplishments... we are happy.
As for the song though, it is my favorite on A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar.
"Oh, how we've shouted, how we've screamed, take notice, take interest, take me with you. "
i love that line.
I actually think its about how people can end a relationship around you and your helpless. your just dying to live.
