After the earthquake Pictures hanging diagonally Drive through crying in a milkshake It wasn't built to last Up in the front seat You were playing with the station And I was fidgeting with the heat Looking back to the vibrant days of Racket in the hall Caution to the breeze Say you'll climb your way out of your wake now Velvet curtain drawn Flowers at your feet Say you'll contemplate how you're weighed down The pulse of the brake light Is the color of burning embers If you wake up, will you remember The awful things I said at the edge of the bed? Thrashing like a great white (I feel the northern tide) As they rolled you up on a stretcher (crashing on the pines) And the faint words of Jessica Fletcher (I feel the northern tide) Were drowned out by the sound of (crashing on the pines) Racket in the hall Caution to the breeze Say you'll climb your way out of your wake now Those days, I'd never let you fall apart But things fade like the scent of a brand new car Why would I ever fall in love again When every detail is over the guardrail? Say you'll climb your way out of your wake now Say you'll contemplate how you're weighed down Are you awake now? Are you awake now? Racket in the hall Caution to the breeze Velvet curtain drawn Flowers at your feet
