And It Sings for Itself Songtext
von The Newfound Interest in Connecticut

Falling in low lit red gray ashes
"How long has it been?", he thought out loud (hands down, echoes swell out)
Like someone was listening now (move over the surface, body of water)

Putting it down: "a little lighter everyday" (He is breaking waves, they draw)
"We laugh but we can′t remember why" (on him)
"Phoning it in, you won't believe what (under the water, until he′s gone)
You can't forget"


This is not written down (drying, ice on our skin, warm)
This is out loud (along our hair)
Putting our words to song (the orange glow)
Our day to days, and our hearts apart (behind the back of our eyelids)
He sees an ant (The water has never been colder than)
Crawling up the window pane
It stops an inch above the rooftops (it is this year)
Then it had wings, then it flew, far and away
