Long Division Lyrics

The song Long Division is performed by Death Cab for Cutie in the album named Narrow Stairs in the year 2008 .

His head was a city of paper buildings
And the echoes that remained of old friends and lovers
Their features bleeding together in his brain
Once it starts it's harder to tell them apart

He was always distracted by the very mention of an open door
'Cause he has sworn not to be what he'd been before

To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder
To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder

The television was snowing softly
As she hunted for her key
She said, she never envisioned
Him a type of person capable of such deceit

And they carried on like long division
'Cause it was clear with every page
Oh, that they were farther away
From the solution that would play

Out the remain, remain, remain remainder
Out the remain, remain, remain remainder
Out the remain, remain, remain remainder
Out the remain, remain, remain remainder

He has sworn not to be what he'd been before

To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder
To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder
To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder
To be a remain, remain, remain, remainder
