I Will Play My Game Beneath The Spin Light Lyrics & Chords By Brand New

The time has come for colds, and overcoats
We're quiet on the ride
We're all just waiting to get home
Another week away, my greatest fear
I need the smell of summer
I need its noises in my ear

If looks could really kill
Then my profession would be staring
Know we do this 'cause we care
Not for the thrill, collect calls to home
Tell 'em that I realize that everyone
Who lives will someday die and die alone

And we won't let you in
Though we're down and out
No, we won't let you in
You win, you win, you win

I wrote more postcards than hooks
I read more maps than books
Feel like every chance to leave
Is another chance I should have took
Every minute is a mile
I've never felt so hollow
I'm an old abandoned church
With broken pews and empty aisles

My secrets for a buck
Watch me as I cut myself wide open
On this stage, yes, I am paid
To spill my guts
I won't see home 'til spring
Oh, I would kill for the Atlantic
But I am paid to make girls
Panic while I sing

As we won't let you in
Though we're down and out
No, we won't let you in
And we won't let you in
We don't want what isn't ours
We won't let you in
You win, you win, you win

And the coastline is quiet
While we're quietly losing control
And we're silent but sure, we invented the cure
That will wash out my memories of her
The harpoon is loaded
The cage is lowered
The water is red like you
Like you

And we won't let you in
Though we're down and out
No, we won't let you in
And we won't let you in
We don't want what isn't ours
We won't let you in
You win, you win, you win
