People As Places As People Lyrics

Artist: Modest Mouse
Album: We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank

To answer the question, it'll probably take more
If you're already there, well you probably don't know
Well we were the people that we wanted to know
And we're the places that we wanted to go

It's hard to get a hold of and hard to let go
Always something we looked for from the day we were born
Instead were the people that we wanted to know
And we're the places that we wanted to go
And we're the places that we wanted to go
And we're the places that we wanted to go

Always asking a question, and I don't wanna know
Like the wind across strings that had finally let go
And the people you love, but you didn't quite know
And they're the places that you wanted to go

Bark at the neighbors, and then bark at the dog, HA
Sniffing the wind, whimpering for someone to know
But we were the people that we wanted to know
And we're the places that we wanted to go
Yeah we're the places that we wanted to go
Yeah we're the places that we wanted to go

It's not the intention, but we let it all go
Well it messed up the function and sure fucked up the flow
I hardly had people that I needed to know
Cause you're the people that I wanted to know

I'll be scrambling 'round, hunting high and then low
Looking for the face, love; or somewhere to go
I hardly had places that I needed to go
Cause you're the places that I wanted to go
Yeah you're the places that we wanted to go
Yeah you're the places that we wanted to go

[You're the people that we wanted to know]
[We shouldn't have to ask]
[We shouldn't have to ask]
[Cause we are your rip cord]
[We shouldn't have to ask]
