Each Year Lyrics by Ra Ra Riot

The Rhumb Line

2007

[Verse 1]
Come on, force it down
I'm imagining
Come on, force it down
I'm imagining
Imagining a place where homes are built on frames
And where they plant new bulbs along our graves
Each year with the fall
Each year with the fall
Each year
[Pre-Chorus]
And if you think you might
Yes, but if it's not so bright
But if you're a part
Of my whole life
[Chorus]
Silhouettes in a window frame
Better run if it's Boo's old man
He won't know if you're white
Oh, in the night
[Verse 2]
Coverin' a fault with
Trials and coy displays
Coverin' a fault with
Trials and coy
If it isn't worth the time to
Find out how we go
About recalling all the ways
And the reasons are for
Each year with the fall
Each year with the fall
Each year
[Pre-Chorus]
And if you think you might
Yes, but if it's not so bright
But if you're a part of my
Whole life
[Chorus]
Silhouettes in a window frame
Better run if it's Boo's old man
He won't know if you're white
Oh, in the night
Vapor lamps in a parking light
You can't see when it's much too far
All that mist in your eyes
Oh, in the night
[Bridge]
And eighty years isn't enough time
Or fifty more isn't more enough
Oh, to right the wrongs
What you're hiding in your back yard
Is turning innocence to apathy
And accusations at another man
Oh, 'cause you don't have a prayer
To put your life into a Christian's hands
Never mind what your daughter is taught in school
What she remembers is
What she has learned from you
[Chorus]
Silhouettes in a window frame
Better run if it's Boo's old man
He won't know if you're white
Oh, in the night
Vapor lamps in a parking lot
You can't see when it's much too dark
All that mist in your eyes
Oh, in the night
