Death Cab For Cutie – I Was A Kaleidoscope Lyrics  Share

From Death Cab For Cutie's album: The Photo Album

I put on my overcoat and walked into winter - my teeth chattered rhythms
and they were grouped in twos or threes, like a morse code message was sent from me to me. cars on slippery slopes, they^,re stuck: people pushing through their mittens as I was beginning to feel it soaking through my shoes, getting colder with every step I took to your apartment, dear.

and I was a kaleidoscope: the snow on my lenses distorting the image of what was only one of you and I didn^,t know which one to address as all your lips moved.

this is when I forget breathe all the things I scripted, they sound unfounded.
And the look that you^,re giving me, it tells me exactly what you are thinking:
"this ain^,t working anymore."
[ I Was A Kaleidoscope lyrics from

they got their mothers worked into a panic
sledding down hills into oncoming traffic
the parents layered clothes until the children couldn^,t move then kept them outside til their noises were blue and I got left there, too.

i put on my overcoat and walked into winter, my teeth chattered rhythms. and they were grouped in twos or threes like a morse code message was sent from me to me.
