Let's Not Fall Apart

They called me up to see if I had heard About the accident The accident of a girl sick with the world This isn't news, it's all old stuff Underneath and above us One arrives and one takes off But let's not fall apart Oh, silence, my heart All the things I did with you And all the things I'll never do I saw the sun come up/fall down The days were fast But time was much too slow Some pretty concrete-sky Was blackening my eyes I stood here and I tried to scream But what came out Well, not much of the things I meant to do with my life Efficiency above all You get yourself free by following a plot You wake and eat and sleep and wake Until it's much too late Now finally I see How easy it would be To get the world off of me And get the spies out from their windows And lift myself above the rooftops To leave and to never return I waited my whole life for this answer All the things I did with you And all the things I'll never do I saw the sun come up/fall down The days were fast But time was much too slow
