Handbook for the Recently Deceased Lyrics by The Damned Things

Ironiclast

2010

[Verse 1]
We're breaking up, getting lost in the static
You're getting blurry right in front of me
The footsteps growing quiet in the hallway
As I let go, let go
The gravity that attracts us helps us implode
Or else we'd keep dividing
But I know, I know
[Chorus]
We're aimed straight at each other
We are doomed to crash
So strike up a fire, light up the town
'Cause we're aimed straight at each other
This was meant to last
So don't try to fight it, the chaos will calm us down
[Verse 2]
Our lips move but we speak in a language
That neither one of us can understand
You sleepwalk through the tape and the sirens
I let go, let go
The rules of our attraction were carved in stone
And yet you keep resisting
But I know, I know
[Chorus]
It doesn't matter, it's a disaster
It doesn't matter
[x2]
The chaos will calm us down
[Chorus]
