Breath On A Window Lyrics
Mending fence along the road
Barely holding together
Mapless zone the road signs holed
Keep ahead of the weather
Long past time to close dead eyes
Find a break in the highway
Out here I'm invisible
Very few going my way
Breath on a window showing tic tac toe
Rear view reflecting there ain't nobody home
Ghost town strip of misery
I ain't feeling no better
Road kill heart inside of me
Follow it to the letter
Sundown brings a welcome change
Everything that's hiding
More at home in landscapes strange
Are you selling I'm buying
Breath on a window showing tic tac toe
Rearview reflecting there ain't nobody home
Cigarette burn holes outline an old soul
Connect the dot scribbling
And you would never know
Failed to head the signal
Thought you got through just in time
Crashing hard upon your ego
Penetrated from the side
I'd let you go, but you're always in the way
I'm the damage done, your scar of yesterday
I'd love to go, but you're always in the way
I'm the damage done, your scar of yesterday.
Barely holding together
Mapless zone the road signs holed
Keep ahead of the weather
Long past time to close dead eyes
Find a break in the highway
Out here I'm invisible
Very few going my way
Rear view reflecting there ain't nobody home
I ain't feeling no better
Road kill heart inside of me
Follow it to the letter
Sundown brings a welcome change
Everything that's hiding
More at home in landscapes strange
Are you selling I'm buying
Rearview reflecting there ain't nobody home
Cigarette burn holes outline an old soul
Connect the dot scribbling
And you would never know
Thought you got through just in time
Crashing hard upon your ego
Penetrated from the side
I'm the damage done, your scar of yesterday
I'm the damage done, your scar of yesterday.

This is a very underrated song, AIC still has it! To me it seems to be about trying to leave someone behind but having a hard time doing so.
this song is freaking AMAZING (the whole new album is, for that matter) and i'm obsessed with it, along with Low Ceiling. <3 keep rockin, guys, because you KICK ASS!
3:30 in the song: a beautiful crescendo. That lines of guitar cut in the flesh. Love it.
Until 3:30, the lyrics is about decay. Maybe tiredness...
After: "I'd let you go, but you're always in the way" This verse is clear to me: the "you" is depression. And the guitars screaming, and the voice too. Layne would like that.
