On Greenhill Place

It's summer forever, we'll always be those kids on Greenhill Place
We're skating down the infinite, baby's-first-hillbomb every day
It's a Slowdive show with you, where they only play 40 Days
Whenever, if ever, will this longing feeling just give me some space
The clouds start to thicken
The condos sprout from the ground
The skyline looks much higher
And the sidewalks are all freshly paved
And I see myself in front of me
I see myself in front of me
You're never going to be me again
Don't waste your life on fruitless things
I know what you become
I know the secrets you're keeping that you wish you could just let out
So I treaded my ground nervously
Begging and pleading to just let me out of this cage
I want to feel the way I felt on Greenhill Place
I want to feel the way I felt on Greenhill Place
Searching for a home, a place we can call our own
We'll make the New Nostalgia together
On that hallowed ground, we take comfort in the sound
Of the New Nostalgia together
I want to feel the way I felt on Greenhill Place
I want to feel the way I felt on Greenhill Place
I want to feel the way I felt on Greenhill Place
I want to feel the way I felt on Greenhill Place
Searching for a home, a place we can call our own
We'll make the New Nostalgia together
On that hallowed ground, we take comfort in the sound
Of the New Nostalgia together

You said I've got all this love in a photograph that you took
No, I don't really mind
Oh we crossed that sea, landed in Germany
Where we were released
Do you lie awake
Does your stomach ache
When I cross your mind
Developing film, and walking back and forth
Hotel to liquor store
We were running through the rain, while it was showering my brain
To get some curry wurst
Denim hanging from the windowsill
We were soaking when the world stood still
I've been trying to get some sleep
But girl I'm stuck counting sheep
I've been losing weight
I've been drinking in the day
So do you lie awake
Does your stomach ache
When I cross your mind
I've been trying to get some sleep
But girl I'm stuck counting sheep
I've been trying to get some sleep
But girl I'm stuck counting sheep
I've been trying to get some sleep
But girl I'm stuck in Germany

Ghosting

Sometimes we are better off knowing nothing at all
Ghosting through the night
I find bliss in the day and ignorance in the dark
Sometimes things don't work out the way they're planned
Stumbling down Granville street
Past the coffee shops where we used to meet
Five hours in the crippling cold
Ghosting, East Hastings
I've got my jacket on
Ghosting, it's all okay
I hope it's not awkward if I run into you on the bus or anything
I know it's not my business, but I just want to know, if you ever called our house a home
I know it's not my business, but I just want to know, if you ever called our house a home
I know it's not my business, but I just want to know, if you ever called our house a home
Ghosting, in the dark
I don't mind
Ghosting, in the dark
I'm drowning in the deep end, and God knows I can't fucking swim
I know it's not my business, but I just want to know, if you ever called our house a home

Tomorrow I'll Be Perfect

Tethered to your side, it's a bold reprise
I said tomorrow I'll be perfect but I never was
There's a hole in the earth, that goes all the way down
I fear my shame is spilling over, you just keep me around
Whisper something pretty in my ear
I blink a second there goes another year
Count the hours as they pass me by
Or is it just me wasting time
Mixing drinks and metaphors
It's nothing new, it's all a bore
Those sweets nothings are just nothing
So go get some rest and there's the door
I don't drink anymore, hurts my head, but it hurts you more
I don't drink anymore, hurts my head, but it hurts you more
I don't drink anymore
I don't drink anymore
I don't drink anymore
I don't drink anymore
What's the harm in just one more

The streets are filled with blood
A lowly angel saunters
Through the wreckage and the plague
The tide keeps rising up
And suddenly we're swimming
Because there's nowhere else to run
The pulse of the earth
Has ceased to beat again
And her service begins now
Like a vein opened up
We couldn't help but make the cut
And we're drowning in our sin
So we started building up
To the sky where we're safer
Clean and holy
Thousand mile high
Pulling out the thorn in my side
We've gotta go higher
And we persevere cause we need to
And we thrive cause we're made to
Because what else are we supposed to do
The clouds blot out the red
And the sons of billions dead
Sing We Shall Be Free
Can we make our breaths one
And sing a song for everyone
And make the floor boards shake
Slowly we will climb
Each morning we will climb again
No matter how far we fall
