Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been Lyrics - Lawrence Arms

A broken record has a thousand answers to countless contradictions. 

Your condition is running through the streets again 

now you've drained your thoughts onto an empty page 

with ink as red as blood 

some words were never meant to be 

like I was talking to myself 

I drew a picture to remind me 

what you look like when it's raining 

use a lot of heavy words that never get you anywhere 

the circle vent is cycling 

another year has lived an died 

Of blue tangled phone lines 

of frequency that's frightening first dial to hear a strangers voice crying 

and now you've drained your thoughts onto an empty page with 

ink as red as blood some words were never meant to be 

like I was talking to myself 

figure 8 crying your silver plates 

icy eyes have you seen the midnight skies 

wipe the sleet from your rusting eyes 

fill this room with superstitious smile a chorus of all lies 

wipe the sleet from your rusting eyes 

I want you to see me for the first time 

your blaring jagged lips 

I'm dying to taste your icy eyes 

you're your blaring jagged lips 

I'm dying to taste icy eyes 

figure 8 I wished I was better than your skates 

icy eyes can you see through my disguise 

figure 8 same old sour twist of fate 

jagged lips your blaring icy eyes
