Tiny Vessels Lyrics

(written by: Ben Gibbard)

Send "Tiny Vessels" Ringtone to your Cell

This is the moment that you know
that you told you loved her but you don't.
You touch her skin and then you think
that she is beautiful but she don't mean a thing to me.
Yeah, she is beautiful, but she don't mean a thing to me.

I spent two weeks in Silverlake.
The California sun cascading down my face
There was a girl with light brown streaks
and she was beautiful but she didn't mean a thing to me.
Yeah, she was beautiful, but she didn't mean a thing to me.

Wanted to believe in all the words that I was speaking
As we moved together in the dark.
And all the friends that I was telling.
And all the playful misspellings.
And every bite i gave you left a mark.

Tiny vessels oozed into your neck
and formed the bruises,
that you said you didn't want to fade,
but they did and so did I that day.

All I see are dark grey clouds
in the distance moving closer with every hour.
So when you ask "Was something wrong?",
that I think "You're damn right there is but we can't talk about it now.
No, we can't talk about it now."

So one last touch and then you'll go.
And we'll pretend that it meant something so much more,
but it was vile, and it was cheap.
And you are beautiful, but you don't mean a thing to me
Yeah, you are beautiful, but you don't mean a thing to me.
Yeah, you are beautiful, but you don't mean a thing to me.

Heard this song through a friend of mine ... as another one departed from my life ... I guess we really didn't mean anything to each other.

I love this song, It's hard to say something about it that I can't say about EVERY dcfc song. I will say that I love the way it blends into the next track.

All times are in Greenwich Mean Time.
The time is now 15:15:56.
