Over the Rhine Album: Ohio Track: What I'll Remember Most
What I'll Remember Most Lyrics
Words and Music: Detweiler
The saddest songs are the happiest The hardest truths are the easiest Put us both to the test And tell me if you still need me And I will swallow these words And see if I can still believe
The biggest lies are the little ones When the look in your eyes is the distant one Angel or demon You know that they can share one bed I've laid awake so long I've got them both inside my head
This is what I'll remember most about dying So many moments like ghosts Slipping through my hands in vain You were 80% angel 10% demon The rest was hard to explain
This American dream may be poisonous Violence is contagious Crowded or empty I walk these city streets alone Whoever brought me here Is gonna have to take me home
This is what I'll remember most about dying Loading these moments like a gun Hoping to kill the pain You were 80% angel 10% demon The rest was hard to explain
