Marching Bands of Manhattan
Death Cab for Cutie
If I could open my arms
And span the length of the Isle of Manhattan
I'd bring it to where you are
Making a lake of the East River and Hudson

If I could open my mouth
Wide enough for a marching band to march out
They would make your name sing
And bend through alleys and bounce off all the buildings

I wish we could open our eyes
To see in all directions at the same time
Oh what a beautiful view
If you were never aware of what was around you

And it is true what you said
That I live like a hermit in my own head
But when the sun shines again
I'll pull the curtains and blinds to let the light in

[Refrain x4]
Sorrow drips into your heart through a pin hole
Just like a faucet that leaks and there is comfort in the sound
But while you debate
"Half empty or half full?"
It slowly rises, your love is gonna drown
[Coda]
Your love is gonna drown (5x)
Write the lyrics for a rock song made in 2005, titled "Marching Bands of Manhattan", by artist "Death Cab for Cutie".
