Title and Registration - Death Cab for Cutie

The glove compartment

Is inaccurately named

And everybody knows it

So I’m proposing

A swift, orderly change

Because behind its door

There’s nothing to keep my fingers warm

And all I find

Are souvenirs from better times

Before the gleam

Of your taillights fading east

To find yourself a better life

I was searching

For some legal document

As the rain beat down on the hood

When I stumbled upon

Pictures I tried to forget

And that’s how this idea

Was drilled into my head

'Cause it’s too important

To stay the way it’s been

But there’s no blame

For how our love did slowly fade

And now that it’s gone

It’s like it wasn’t there at all

And here I rest

Where disappointment and regret collide

Lying awake at night

And there’s no blame

For how our love did slowly fade

And now that it’s gone

It’s like it wasn’t there at all

And here I rest

Where disappointment and regret collide

Lying awake at night

Up all night

When I’m lying awake at night
