Cover art for 405 lyrics by Death Cab for Cutie

Yet another beautiful song. the acoustic version is just great, i have to roll down my windows in my car and just drive listening to it. the obvious guy would point out that he "pays tribute"? to highway 405 here in washington, the intellectual guy would say the highway is irrelevant, it's another song about a relationship, or hindsight of one.
