Silversun Pickups
Ribbons & Detours
[Verse 1]
I can't believe it, you of all things
It's been a while, memories teem
Some kind of anthem lingering
Images settle internally

[Chorus]
Ribbons and detours meant nothing to me
Swaying the sentiments, pulling our strings
Tempting me softly, but killing our dream
You said it's over, but maybe
It's the same old thing

[Verse 2]
I can't believe it, you of all things
Coming in homage, devious needs
Intimate outlies weakening
Tranquilize slowly, inside of me

[Chorus]
Ribbons and detours meant nothing to me
Swaying the sentiments, pulling our strings
Tempting me softly, but killing our dream
You said it's over but maybe
It's the same old thing
[Bridge]
I gave the softest parts
Charmed by the darkest parts
Whispered the tender parts
Made of idealistic scenes

[Chorus]
Ribbons and detours meant nothing to me
Swaying the sentiments, pulling our strings
Tempting me softly, but killing our dream
You said it's over but maybe
It's the same old thing

[Outro]
It's the same old thing
It's the same old thing
It's the same old thing
