IOU

Lyrics

Old world underground where are you now?
 Subtract my age from the mileage
 on my speeding heart, credit cards
 accelerate, accumulate
 looked for you downtown
 wound up in a movie with no story
 now it's late and you are nowhere to be found
 ♪
 Hesitation's always mine
 hesitate outside the times
 
 with all I don't say
 with all I don't do
 I'm sending you
 Invitations to hesitate too
 ♪
 Every ten year-old enemy soldier
 Thinks falling bombs are shooting stars sometimes
 But she doesn't make wishes on them
 When she wishes, she wishes for less ways to wish for
 More ways to work toward it
 Ten year-old enemy soldier
 Our falling bombs are her shooting stars
 ♪
 Hesitation's always mine
 
 hesitate outside the times
 
 oh call me or drop me a line
 
 say you've been with me
 say you've been with me
 say you've been with me
 this whole time
 ♪
 Old world underground I never knew you
 But I've seen your face everywhere
 there was a farm before we tore
 the small town down
 multiply divide
