Teardrops - David Bazan

The setting sun

Streaming through smeared windshield

Not quite home

Feeling low and unreal

Breathe in deep

Open your eyes

Slam into brake lights

That’s when you realize

You are not alone

Teardrops fall from your eyes

Flesh and blood and bone

Oh

Sitting up

In a daze, uneasy

Flashing lights

Plastic cuffs

Still breathing

Having to admit you made

Another mistake

That’s when you realize

You are not alone

Teardrops fall from your eyes

Flesh and blood and bone

Teardrops fall from your eyes

That’s when you realize
