Ra Ra Riot Lyrics
"Each Year"

Come on force it down
I'm imagining
Come on force it down
I'm imagining

Imagining a place where homes
Are built on frames
Where they plant new bulbs
Along our graves
Each year with the fall
Each year with the fall
Each year

And if you think you might
Yes but if it's not so bright
But if you're a part of my
Whole life

Silhouettes in a window frame
Better run if it Boo's old man
He won't know if you're white
Oh in the night

Covering a fault with
Trials and coy displays
Covering a fault with
Trials and coy displays

If it isn't worth the time to
Find out how we go
About recalling all the ways
And the reasons are for
Each year with the fall
Each year with the fall
Each year

And if you think you might
Yes but if it's not so bright
But if you're a part of my
Whole life

Silhouettes in a window frame
Better run if it Boo's old man
He won't know if you're white
Oh in the night
Vapor lamps in a parking lot
You can't see when it's much too far
All that mist in your eyes
Oh in the night

80 year isn't enough time
50 more isn't more enough
Oh to right the wrongs
What you're hiding in your back yard
Is turning innocence to apathy
And accusations at another man
Oh 'cause you don't have a prayer
To put your life into a Christian's hands
Never mind what your
Daughter is taught in school
What she remembers is
What she has learned from you

Silhouettes in a window frame
Better run if it Boo's old man
He won't know if you're white
Oh in the night
Vapor lamps in a parking lot
You can't see when it's much too far
All that mist in your eyes
Oh in the night
