2:19 Lyrics

Cover art for 2:19 lyrics by Tom Waits

I wasn't planning on dedicating all my comments on song meanings to pointing out the genius of Tom Waits, but hey hey :-)

"On the train you get smaller as you get further away The roar covers everything you wanted to say Was that a raindrop in the corner of your eye? Were you drying your nails or waving good bye?"

-Jaw drops-

My Opinion

Interesting to note:

"They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us." John 2:19 International Version

Wouldn't be surprised if Tom hid that in there. This is coming from an atheist btw, hope you don't think I'm preaching ;)
