The New Pornographers Graceland lyrics

Countdown to zero, to zero
I am listening through the walls
Not at all
What I thought I was missing

In my case there is something
In the will to escape life at last
As we ride into the sun
Safe we burst into flames

I don't know, I don't know
How you missed us
Rolling by, rolling by
Like the three ghosts of Christmas

In my life this will happen
To a boy every time
The perfect crime
Which as everybody knows pays just fine

So pay my way into Graceland
To Graceland
Pay my way into Graceland
We're even, we're even


Lights out and the first
Of your circuits is broken
Tell the post, good to go
Set it, give into motion

In my life this will happen
To a boy every time
The perfect crime
Which everybody knows pays just fine

So pay my way into Graceland
To Graceland
Pay my way into Graceland
We're even, we're even

So pay my way into Graceland
To Graceland
Pay my way into Graceland
We're even, we're even
