Dashboard Confessional – The Sharp Hint of New Tears Lyrics
On the way home this car hears my confessions
I think tonight I’ll take the long way
In this weather, the wind outside is biting
It’s left me feeling tired and exposed
You’ve been asking me to bleed, it seems these kinds of questions
They come too easy to you now
Your lack of shame comes naturally, I should not be surprised
I should have seen it sooner
Expect me to apologize for things that you’ve done wrong
While you’re inciting others
You’re owning up to nothing and I wish that I was gone
‘Cause you’re not going anywhere
And this damp air, it’s fighting my defroster
My sighs, they ring victorious and fog this tinted glass
And it’s clouded and so is my head
The hint of these new tears are sharp I try to choke them back
But it’s useless, I’m useless against them
They’re beating me with ease
On the way home this car hears my confessions
I think tonight I’ll take the long way
Expect me to apologize for things that you’ve done wrong
While you’re inciting others
You’re owning up to nothing and I wish that I was gone
‘Cause you’re not going anywhere
