  • Yeah

    The dark is dropping like a spot
    Of black ink squeezed into a glass of water
    And now the crowds are thinning out
    Into the light down in the subway station

    Here this train speeds underground
    This train speeds under the river

    And I will drift back to the slope
    Some face unlit there, stuck into the incline
    Where I will sleep off all the noise
    The soot accumulated all my trials

    Here this train speeds underground
    This train speeds under the river

    And I thank you Lord Almighty up above
    Just for sending out the F train to me
    So thankful for all the unspent love
    That I save up in the jar of money

    Your Polaroid is on the wall
    Stuck in the crack between the door and door-frame
    Trapped in the middle of some laugh
    Some drunken joke some friend of Yours was telling

    Here this train speeds underground
    This train speeds under the river

    And I thank you Lord Almighty up above
    Just for sending out the F train to me
    So thankful for all the unspent love
    That I save up in the jar of money

    That I save up in the jar of money
    That I save up in the jar of money
    That I save up in the jar of money
    That I save up in the jar of money
    That I save up in the jar of money Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
