La Dispute
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Drivers out on the bridge
2
Slowing down as they go through a lane shift
3
Wires snap
4
Concrete gives
5
Metal twisting and
6
Everything tumbling
7
At the end of the work day
8
Stuck in traffic don't feel when the road sways
9
Underneath
10
Concrete gives
11
Metal twisting and
12
Everything tumbling
13
To their partners and kids
14
Don't suspect anything till the bridge splits
15
Wires snap
16
Concrete gives
17
Metal twisting and
18
Everything tumbling
19
Down
20
Where I sat I saw brake lights flash
21
And I pictured them: all the people, their faces in free fall, the water beneath
22
I pushed my palms against the table hard to see if it hurt
23
Were it glass would I have shattered it?
24
Could I battle every impulse to panic and then win
25
Swim out through the metal twisting upward like a sculpture
26
Or some terrible beast?
27
x2
28
People trapped in their cars
29
Put both feet on the glass and then kick hard
30
Water pours in
31
Seat belts twist
32
River flowing and
33
Everything going down (stream)
34
On the dining room wall I watched it
35
Play in the reflection of the television
36
The reversal in the mirror
37
Hung I could see it all
38
How the dust clouds gather
39
Color as they billow out
40
Shades change shifting in the night
41
From the lights atop an ambulance
42
Like a firework's flash then
43
That otherworldly glow
44
In the smoke thrown in the aftermath blows
45
Almost frozen for a moment there
46
I could see it all
47
Every
48
Dust cloud
49
Shattered glass
50
Billow out
51
On the TV
52
Wires snap and the
53
Concrete gives
54
Metal twists up and onward
55
I can see it all
56
Every
57
Dust cloud
58
Shattered glass
59
Billow out
60
On the TV
61
Wires snap and the
62
Concrete gives in
63
Metal twists up and onward I watch
64
And I can see it all
65
All the wreckage
66
All the cars piled
67
In the river and
68
The rail yard
69
Metal twists
70
Wires snap
71
Concrete blocks split
72
Dangle from tie rods
73
And metal twists up
74
Wires sway
75
When a breeze blows
76
In the distant
77
Sirens glow
78
I can see it all
79
Where they look for survivors
80
Searchlights float
81
Change the color of smoke clouds
82
And shadows still fall
83
People under the water
84
People trapped in their cars kick and try to get out
85
People still with their seat belts on
86
Pets they had in the back and
87
Car seats
88
And I watch it on TV lying down here
89
On the floor in the dining room reversed in the mirror
90
Where I know I'm not dreaming now
91
But I know I've been sleeping
92
I just don't know since when
93
I only know that it's light outside
94
I only know that the rent is still late
95
When did they find out the concrete gave?
96
When did they learn that the wires snapped?
Such Small Hands and Nobody Not Even the...
