Berlin

You flee when it's hard
As I stay put
You say you're a bird
But you're flying east for winter
And I will tell you not to go
You won't hear it anyway
But what are you going toward?
Is it something you can't say?

Sit in the car, parked in the dark
Hearing raindrop on the roof
Sit in the car, parked in the dark
Hearing raindrop on the roof

Today marks the sixth year
From when I first met you
A stranger gave us a beer
In the hallway of the bathroom
And we drank it real slow
I was just trying to get to know you
In the dorm room we sang
Violet by Hole
Screaming off our youth

Sit in the car, parked in the dark
Hearing raindrop on the roof
Sit in the car, parked in the dark
Hearing raindrop on the roof
Sit in the car, parked in the dark
Hearing raindrop on the roof
Sit in the car, parked in the dark
Hearing raindrop on the roof

And it's the slow burning of our excuse
The push and pull, the calm is the waiting room
And if you go, at least give me a reason

I will sit in the car, parked in the dark
Hearing raindrop on the roof
Sit in the car, parked in the dark
Hearing raindrop on the roof

I am in the dark of Berlin
Watching the fire ringing
I am in the dark of Berlin
Shadow and I am following it
I am in the dark of Berlin
Watching the fire ringing
I am in the dark of Berlin
Shadow and I am following it
I am in the dark of Berlin
Watching the fire ringing
