We're too late, we're too late
No one uses the phone anymore
The tracks are wrecked and the odometer's ticking
The edge is pushed and the lines are melting
Too scared to look at what I hear outside 

Release
We're too late
Protect, embrace, engulf 
Remember the summer in Abaddon

Protect, enslave, in love
Remember the summer in Abaddon

Way offsides and I'm almost empty
I'm cracked and stripped like a dominoe's crush
Send a tell if you're ever near me
I'm a.f.k. and I can't get by

Release me

This vessel's underway, secure the riggings
Tack the sales, man the posts
We're headed south, into the wind 

Protect, embrace, engulf
Remember the summer in Abaddon

Protect, enslave, in love
Remember the summer in Abaddon

No one hears you fall to the floor
The mirror's broke and the newtonian's clicking
The finds are pressed and the veins are pumping
Too far gone to do more than breathe

Release me

This vessel's underway
Miles and miles of telephone poles
Fallen and tossed around
I can't talk to you anymore, and I miss you
Not in a Slint way, but I miss you
