Home- home in the late-night
and away- away in the half-life except Saturday- crushed by the boring until played and plagued again by the tourists when once you had believed it now you see it's sucking you in to string you along with the pretense and pave the way for the coming release alone and prone in the half-light and late- late to the real-life if you find a way into the gold rush you will stay until the morning comes you can normalize don't it make you feel alive |

Its time to get away, its time to get away from you
Its time to get away, its time to get away from you You brought a lot of money But me, I got a tiny tummy And you, you make me sleep I try and try But you're under my knee And I start to be sensible (if you know what I mean) And so its time to get away, Its time to get away from you I'm dying to get away, I'm dying to get away Next time we'll talk it over And we can start again For you, I caught a lot of static And me, I would like it automatic Ah-what what what what what did you think would happen next? Ah-what what what what what could it ever be? Though its time to get away, its time to get away from you I'm dying to get away, I'm dying to get away Next time let's talk about it And maybe start again To think I used to pity you To think I used to pity you, it's true To think I used to pity you To think I used to talk to you, it's true Next time we can talk about it Or even start again I couldn't tell you what you wanted (You know what I'm saying?) I knew you were low man, But the truth is I was shocked (Of) power eyes, eyes never lie Kids, Kids never lie. |

I wish that we could talk about it,
But there, that's the problem. With someone new I could have started, Too late, for beginnings. The little things that made me harassed, Are gone, in a moment. I miss the way we used to argue, Locked, in your basement. I wake up and the phone is ringing, Surprised, as it's early. And that should be the perfect warning, That something's, a problem. To tell the truth I saw it coming, The way, you were breathing. But nothing can prepare you for it, The voice, on the other, end. The worst is all the lovely weather, I'm sad, it's not raining. The coffee isn't even bitter, Because, what's the difference? There's all the work that needs to be done, It's late, for revision. There's all the time and all the planning, And songs, to be finished. And it keeps coming, And it keeps coming, And it keeps coming, Till the day it stops (Repeat x3) And it keeps coming, (Repeat x7) Till the day it stops. I wish that we could talk about it, But there, that's the problem. With someone new I could have started, Too late, for beginnings. You're smaller than my wife imagined, Surprised, you were human. There shouldn't be this ring of silence, But what, are the options? When someone great is gone. (Repeat x8) We're safe, for the moment. Saved, For the moment |

That's how it starts. We go back to your house, you check the charts, and start to figure it out. And if it's crowded, all the better, because we know we're going to be up late. But if you're worried about the weather, then you've picked the wrong place to stay. That's how it starts. And so it starts. We switch the engine on. We set controls for the heart of the sun. One of the ways that we show our age. And if the sun comes up, if the sun comes up, and if the sun comes up and I still don't want to stagger home. Then it's the memories of our betters that are keeping us on our feet. You spent the first five years trying to get with the plan, and the next five years trying to be with your friends again. Oh, you're taking 45 turns just as fast as you can. Yeah, I know it gets tired, but it's better when we pretend. It comes apart. The way it does in bad films. Except the part where the moral kicks in. And when we're running out of the drugs, and the conversation's grinding away, I wouldn't trade one stupid decision for another five years of life. Oh, you drop the first ten years just as fast as you can and the next ten people who are trying to be polite. When you're blowing 85 days in the middle of France. Yeah, I know it gets tired, only where are your friends tonight? To tell the truth, this could be the last time. So here we go, like a sales force into the night. And if I made a fool, if I made a fool, if I made a fool on the road, there's always this. And if I'm sued into submission, I can still come home to this. And with a face like a dad and a laughable stand, you can sleep on the plane or if you want to sit When you're drunk and the kids look impossibly tan you think over and over, "hey, I'm finally dead". Oh when the trip and the plan come apart in your hands, you can turn it on yourself, you ridiculous prop. You'll forget what you meant when you read what you said Oh and you knew you were tired, but then where are your friends tonight? Where are your friends tonight? Where are your friends tonight? If I could see all my friends tonight, if I could see all my friends tonight, If I could see all my friends tonight, if I could see all my friends tonight. |

New York, I Love You
But you`re bringing me down New York, I Love You But you`re bringing me down Like a rat in a cage Pulling minimum wage New York, I Love You But you`re bringing me down New York, you`re safer And you`re wasting my time Our records all show You are filthy but fine But they shuttered your stores When you opened the doors To the cops who were bored Once they`d run out of crime New York, you`re perfect Don`t please don`t change a thing Your mild billionaire mayor`s Now convinced he`s a king So the boring collect I mean all disrespect In the neighborhood bars I`d once dreamt I would drink New York, I Love You But you`re freaking me out There`s a ton of the twist But we`re fresh out of shout Like a death in the hall That you hear through your wall New York, I Love You But you`re freaking me out New York, I Love You But you`re bringing me down New York, I Love You But you`re bringing me down Like a death of the heart Jesus, where do I start? But you`re still the one pool Where I`d happily drown And oh.. Take me off your mailing list For kids that think it still exists Yes, for those who think it still exists Maybe I`m wrong And maybe you`re right Maybe I`m wrong And maybe you`re right Maybe you`re right Maybe I`m wrong And just maybe you`re right And Oh.. Maybe mother told you true And they`re always be something there for you And you`ll never be alone But maybe she`s wrong And maybe I`m right And just maybe she`s wrong Maybe she`s wrong And maybe I`m right And if so, is there? |
