This is missing some lyrics at the end. I think they go:
"Call the cops!
We're star-crossed, we've gone numb.
Well it was fun!
But I guess we lost,
I guess we're done."
Fantastic song, especially that final verse listed here:
"How I prayed and I hoped
it would lead to some moment
when all of it just flew apart.
How I wished and I schemed it, from whisper to scream.
How I wanted to just hold your heart
in the palm of my hand,
and just watch as it slows
and it stops."
God, that's just brilliant. I think Okkervil River is at their best in this song.
