The Approaching Curve lyrics
Song information
Artist: Rise Against Album: The Sufferer & The Witness
Lyrics
[Spoken:] The music blared with a calming frequency The speakers gently seeped the sounds of ambient keyboards and light percussion Creating a seductive soundtrack to our midnight drive through curtains of blackness The windows were cold to the touch, reflecting the icy conditions in our immediate extremity Salt stains and fingerprints littered the glass, and streets with melted snow cascaded down its length The music pulsed louder, yet gentle, like the far away squeal of a pot of boiling water The skyline was glowing faintly with vague hints of an impending dawn The car raced along a painfully straight stretch of road And she hadn't so much as turned the steering wheel two degrees in the last twenty minutes Nor had we spoken
As we were, so perfect ,so happy They'll remember, only our smiles 'cause that's all they've seen Long since dried, when we are found, are the tears in which we had drowned As we were, so perfect, so happy
[Spoken:] "Why are you doing this?" she spoke as if not expecting a response Her voice penetrated the still air of our speechless drive, so suddenly that my heart had jumped "I'm not doing anything," I said, but I didn't even believe that myself "This is what's best, for me, for you, for us, or maybe just for me," I thought As a tear formed in the pit of her eye. the music poured through the speakers And we were losing ourselves in the cadence. she looked down momentarily and closed her eyes For a bit longer than a standard blink. then she was crying. then she was shouting Then I was shouting, now pouring confessions, having no answers, or solutions We barely even knew the questions
As we were, so perfect ,so happy They'll remember, only our smiles 'cause that's all they've seen Long since dried, when we are found, are the tears in which we had drowned As we were, so perfect, so happy
Don't put me under ground, I was meant for a life somewhere else Please love give me the wheel before both of our hearts you will steal tonight. (will steal tonight.)
As we were, so perfect, so happy They'll remember, only your smiles 'cause that's all they've seen Long since dried, when we are found, are the tears in which we had drowned As we were, so perfect, so happy
[Spoken:] Our cracking voices became part of the music The car pressed on faster through the night. as our voices lowered The cadence again overtook the air Up ahead there was a curve approaching She made no indications of slowing
