“Three Six Five” is a gut-punch of a rock ballad about grappling with loss and the way time slips away. It comes from a real place—bassist Eric Bass poured his heart into it after losing his dad, sister-in-law to cancer, aunt, and mentor in just two years. The song’s core is about wishing you could...
Three Six Five Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a hurricane and it's on the way
Been sitting around this house for days
I'm in here, waiting on the flood
Been hanging out and holding on
To every word in our favorite song
These headphones are thicker than blood
[Chorus]
If I could hitch a ride on a time machine
I would bring you right back here with me
And I wouldn't have to watch you disappear
Even though I said all the things that mattered most
While I held on tight to the end of the rope
I could keep you close, but I couldn't keep you here
A lot can happen in a year
[Verse 2]
Giving in, not giving up
Maybe I didn't care enough
I wish I could let you know somehow
[Chorus]
If I could hitch a ride on a time machine
I would bring you right back here with me
And I wouldn't have to watch you disappear
Even though I said all the things that mattered most
While I held on tight to the end of the rope
I could keep you close, but I couldn't keep you here
A lot can happen in a year
A lot can happen in a year
A lot can happen in a year
[Bridge]
Keep looking out, not looking down
You won't find the answers in the ground
Where will we be twelve months from now?
[Chorus]
If I could hitch a ride on a time machine
I would bring you right back here with me
And I wouldn't have to watch you disappear
Even though I said all the things that mattered most
While I held on tight to the end of the rope
I could keep you close, but I couldn't keep you here
A lot can happen in a year
