Death Cab for Cutie
Blacking Out the Friction/Brand New Love (The Wiltern, Los Angeles 5.21.04)
[Veres 1]
I don't mind the weather
I've got scarves and caps and sweaters
I've got long Johns under slacks for blustery days

[Verse 2]
I think that it's brainless to assume
That making changes to your window's view
Will give a new perspective

[Pre-Chorus]
And the hardest part is yet to come

[Chorus 1]
I don't mind restrictions
Or if you're blacking out the friction
It's just an escape, it's overrated anyway

[Verse 3]
The hardest part is yet to come
When you will cross the country
Alone

[Verse 4]
Restless eyes close, maybе it'll go away
Please rest tomorrow, bring a satisfying day
The restless urge of love that's worth the burning for
Surely it's that one love to give you more
[Chorus 2]
Any thought could be the beginning of
The brand new tangled web you're spinning
Anyone could be your brand new love
Any tie that holds can be broken
Tear your bitter world to the open

[Verse 5]
Anyone could be your brand new love
You won't be the first, your twisted change is normal
Gossip dirt, whispered to the nodding heads
Thrilled you fell apart, instead of them
'Cause they will
Any hope for love can be killed
If you need a different face
It's definite time to destroy this place

[Chorus 2]
Any thought could be the beginning of
The brand new tangled web you're spinning
Anyone could be your brand new love
Anyone could be your brand new love
Anyone could be your brand new love
