Now It's Done Lyrics

moving in slow like the smoke
from your cigarette
every step closer's a step
that we both will regret
keeping a tally but who can keep track?
your overreacting is taking me back
to a time better left alone

holding on to the phone
holding on to this glass
holding on to the memory of what didn't last
waiting for betters words; they'll never come
so dry your eyes, it's better now it's done

keep a tight grip like a child
holding onto a swing set
waiting and hoping to find what i can't figure out yet
please don't, unless this is something you mean
another nightmare instead of a dream
better left alone

holding on to the phone
holding on to this glass
holding on to the memory of what didn't last
waiting for betters words; they'll never come
so dry your eyes
holding on to the phone
holding on to this glass
holding on to the memory of what didn't last
waiting for betters words; they'll never come
so dry your eyes, it's better now it's done

i never lost so much
i never lost so much
i never lost so much

holding on to the phone
holding on to this glass
holding on to the memory of what didn't last
waiting for better words; they'll never come
so dry your eyes
holding on to the phone
holding on to this glass
holding on to the memory of what didn't last
waiting for betters words; they'll never come
so dry your eyes, it's better now it's done

Straylight Run was the project of ex-Taking Back Sunday members John Nolan and Shaun Cooper. The band formed in May 2003 shortly after John and Shaun left Taking Back Sunday due to personal differences with lead singer Adam Lazzara. John and Shaun had been writing songs while still in the old band that they felt didn't fit in with Taking Back Sunday's style, and the freedom of starting a new band gave them a chance to experiment with this new sound. The band is based in Baldwin, New York, United States, the hometown of most of the members. The band's name is taken from a chapter of William Gibson's novel "Neuromancer."

The band gained popularity early on through word of mouth after they released 6 demos available for download exclusively on their website. They then went on to release a self-titled full-length and more recently a 6 track EP Prepare To Be Wrong. The band currently consists of John Nolan (vocals, guitar, piano), his sister Michelle DaRosa (vocals, guitar, piano), Shaun Cooper (bass) and Will Noon (drums). The band recently added a new song titled "The Miracle That Never Came" on its myspace.

Straylight Run's latest album, The Needles The Space, was released on June 19, 2007.

On June 3, 2008, Michelle DaRosa announced on the band's myspace that she was officially leaving to pursue her own solo projects. Shortly after leaving Straylight Run, DeRosa formed the band Destry which includes Shaun Cooper from her former band and Sam Means of the defunct indie rock band The Format

On February 16th 2010, Straylight Run went on an indefinate hiatus.

In March of 2010 TBS announced the return of John Nolan, and Shaun Cooper rejoining TBS Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
