For the View Songtext
von Skating Polly

Please don′t chase us to the score of a spectacle
I threw my drawings in the dirt
You took it hard and you're so compelling
I strode in catching stars
Walked back out with screaming palms
Hoping I would never leave my roses
And I never did again
′Cause I never thought I'd choke

If it is the stars I lost, I lost them for you
Pick me up, sell me cold if that's what you gotta do
So I can be crying ′cause of you
But I know it′s fun to drain my eyes
Trapped inside my room for the view
But I know I'm yours ′cause you join my flames


Pretty features in the birds are forgettable
I wonder how you wander through the cars
'Cause all your favors often spoke highly of his fame
You breathed so loud with broken words
Hoping I would never leave my roses
And I never laughed at all
′Cause I never thought I'd choke

If it is the stars I lost, I lost them for you
Pick me up, sell me cold if that′s what you gotta do
So I can be crying 'cause of you
But I know it's fun to drain my eyes
Trapped inside my room for the view
But I know I′m yours ′cause you join my flames

I don't know the reasons
I don′t have your mail
Trick, call down
The preachers
Drag them down
To scale

If it is the stars I lost, I lost them for you
Pick me up, sell me cold if that's what you gotta do
So I can be crying ′cause of you
But I know it's fun to drain my eyes
Drain my eyes
Drain my eyes
