Does It Matter? Songtext
von Bestfriend

In this crumbling state around us
You′re the only one I want to hold
Think we can manage that today
God knows we won't make it to when we′re old

The water's rushing in
Wish I knew exactly what I want to say
What I know is that I'd give anything
To see you on the subway
We′re getting way too old to do this
Silly chasing game that we play
I′d give the world to see and talk to you
In a taxi heading to the plane


In this crumbling state around us
You're the only one I want to hold
I think we can manage that today
God knows we won′t make it to when we're old
Let′s both give it all up in a second
Just too see each other standing on a train
I think we've got a little less than a decade
I know what they say but it feels too late

I′ll hold your head close to my chest
You can listen to me breathing
Slow and forced, the world receding
We couldn't make it to the moon even if we wanted to
I think that ship set sail long ago
That's what everyone′s been told
So we′ll grab a raft
And paddle til our arms break

In this crumbling state around us
You're the only one I want to hold
I think we can manage that today
God knows we won′t make it to when we're old
Let′s both give it all up in a second
Just to see each other standing on a train
I think we've got a little less than a decade
I know what they say but it feels too late


Wake up the same every day
Pulling the coat over your face
Tell a man he′s fine 'cause
He'll never run out of time
Paddle till our arms break
Paddle till our arms break

In this crumbling state around us
You′re the only one I want to hold
I think we can manage that today
God knows we won′t make it to when we're old
Let′s both give it all up in a second
Just to see each other standing on a train
I think we've got a little less than a decade
I know what they say but it′s too late
