Dashboard Confessional – Hands Down Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Breathe in for luck, breathe in so deep
This air is blessed, you share with me
This night is wild, so calm and dull
These hearts, they race, from self control
Your legs are smooth as they graze mine
We’re doing fine, we’re doing nothing at all
[Chorus]
My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won’t you kill me, so I die happy?
My heart is yours to fill or burst to break or bury
Or wear as jewelry, whichever you prefer
[Verse 2]
The words are hushed, let’s not get busted
Just lay entwined here, undiscovered
Safe in here from all the stupid questions
“Hey, did you get some?” Man, that is so dumb
Stay quiet, stay near, stay close, they can’t hear
So we can get some
[Chorus]
My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won’t you kill me, so I die happy?
My heart is yours to fill or burst, to break or bury
Or wear as jewelry, whichever you prefer
