Junior Boys

These days are getting longer
This song is gonna be so loud
You know one thing you told me?
You have a new name now

(This tim I'll stay for good)

We'll do that flash gold
It burned my shadow gray
Where have those far days got to now?

I saw him in the part-shade
He put his hands down low
What else did I see?
What else did they show?
You think it's so unlike me
Why did the city change me?
Red sky, my eyes closed
The fire came so slow

(This time I'll stay for good)

You called and then you missed my birthday
You've gone and left me on my own
I'm home, don't stay, it's cool anyway
It's not so bad to stay at home

Is it true that it's me?
You can say all the things you want to
But you don't need to leave if you take all this weight behind me
Let it go
Now it's you
You forget all the things you want to
You're not here in the end
You have nothing left to say

I guess it passed me on my birthday
You slept right through the year I've grown
And now I can't remember anyway
I need to wash my hands real slow

Is it true that it's me?
You can say all the things you want to
But you don't need to leave if you take all this weight behind me
Let it go
Now it's you
You forget all the things you want to
You're not here in the end
So there's nothing left to say

You called and then you missed my birthday
I know we'd do it all again
(?)
This time I close my eyes and really wish you'd come

Is it true that it's me?
You can say all the things you want to
But you don't need to leave if you take all this weight behind me
Let it go
Now it's you
You forget all the things you want to
You're not here in the end
So there's nothing left to say

You called and then you missed my birthday
You've gone and left me on my own
I'm home, don't stay, it's cool anyway
It's not so bad to stay at home

Is it true that it's me?
You can say all the things you want to
But you don't need to leave if you take all this weight behind me
Let it go
Now it's you
You forget all the things you want to
You're not here in the end
You have nothing left to say

I guess it passed me on my birthday
You slept right through the year I've grown
And now I can't remember anyway
I need to wash my hands real slow

Is it true that it's me?
You can say all the things you want to
But you don't need to leave if you take all this weight behind me
Let it go
Now it's you
You forget all the things you want to
You're not here in the end

Let it go
Now it's you
You forget all the things you want to
You're not here in the end
So there's nothing left to say

Baby, I know it might sound strange but
But I, I think I've seen you in my head
You're not alone at all, the song traced you always
And I watched

Take this whole damnn crowd out there waiting
But I gotta too, empty
But you look so traced
Baby, put your trust in me

Get you through the water
Keep the new car up all night
Had you in the city
They're watching, so I'll take my time
When the lights go out
Behind the bridge, last exit
Through the highway's yellow glare
Have we been out this far?

When you think you're falling
You can change your face again
If you think you're falling,
Know I'll catch you just the same

Hit the North 400
The highbeams slowly kiss the lake
The trees are dark, it's just as well
The fog shines off the hospital
As the night goes past,
A similar light begins to show
As if you could prevent a call
Your hair, it begins to smell like fall

When you think you're falling
You can change your face again
If you think you're falling,
Know I'll catch you just the same
Just the same

When you think you're falling
You can change your face again
If you think you're falling,
Know I'll catch you just the same
Just the same

Get you through the water
Keep the new car up all night
Had you in the city
They're watching, so I'll take my time
When the lights go out
Behind the bridge, last exit
Through the highway's yellow glare
Have we been out this far?

When you think you're falling
You can change your face again
If you think you're falling,
Know I'll catch you just the same

Hit the North 400
The highbeams slowly kiss the lake
The trees are dark, it's just as well
The fog shines off the hospital
As the night goes past,
A similar light begins to show
As if you could prevent a call
Your hair, it begins to smell like fall

When you think you're falling
You can change your face again
If you think you're falling,
Know I'll catch you just the same
Just the same

When you think you're falling
You can change your face again
If you think you're falling,
Know I'll catch you just the same
Just the same

Your face, it shows you are an imposter
That snapshot still in the parking lot
You're on the screen, I feel you downtown
Out on the street, I feel the underground

The distance makes me want you more
The scent you give, that's what I'm waiting for
Your birthday song until your family learns
What are the things I planned, and that I'll be your man

Tonight I got your number
I even know your street
If you could only need me
I know we're meant to meet
And even if they find you
I know you make me feel
You make me feel more than real

They put you on, in the smoking glass
Your dress got torn straight through the underpass
The air got blue while in my closed-in room
I'm checking off what's left to do

The distance makes me want you more
The scent you give, that's what I'm waiting for
Your birthday song until your family learns
What are the things I planned, and that I'll be your man

Tonight I got your number
I even know your street
If you could only need me
I know we're meant to meet
And even if they find you
I know you make me feel
You make me feel more than real

Tonight I got your number
I even know your street
If you could only need me
I know we're meant to meet
And even if they find you
I know you make me feel
You make me feel more than real

There's some things I forget
And if it's wrong, I keep it in check
'Cause what could I do
If we go out tonight
With that blood on your shirt?
Would it taste like a brand new shirt?
'Cause I don't know

Can you teach me how to fight?
Show me what it's like to give that pain
Show me how to fight, throw him down

There were times in the past
If I had the move, I couldn't make it last
Girl, it's wasted in the night
And is it really so hard?
Tell your body to forget the words
Pushing you too hard
'Cause I don't know

Can you teach me how to fight?
Show me what it's like to give that pain
Show me how to fight, throw him down

Shine in every light
More than for a day
You stayed the same, wild
And were that way
Don't you want me a whole man?
You can't pretend that you're not sentimental too
I know
I know you

Say what you will
And call me what you want
But those years you spent away
How I wish you stayed
But it's still too little too
When you start playing like you're everybody's fool
'Cause I know you, yeah

Are you still awake?
We can keep things the same
In time things fade
But why can't I really wait?
Don't you want me here so
I can offer you three words so true?
Like I know you

Sweet one, sweet one under the sun
You're the sweet one, sweet one under the sun
Sweet one, sweet one under the sun
You're the sweet one, sweet one under the sun

Sweet one, sweet one under the sun
You're the sweet one, sweet one under the sun
Sweet one, sweet one under the sun
You're the sweet one, sweet one under the sun

When the day is over
Where could you be
Do you look past the lights and
Think where is he
When im not around
How can you relate
To the night in front of you
And the things we never say

Sometimes alone
In the club where i met you
My feels seem cruel
But i never regret you
When im not around
Will you let me know
Keep me on my game
Don't let your feelings show

It seems i disappear
Im really right behind
Through the streets im always near
Right through the edge of night

There's that look that you give
When there's a light on the floor
The haze of countless nights
Is coming in through the door
When im not around
Who do you revive
What name is on your mind
When the morning comes alive

It seems i disappear
Im really right behind
Through the streets im always near
Right through the edge of night

It seems i disappear
Im really right behind
Through the streets i keep you near
Right through the edge of night
Come on i'll take you home
You've been out way to long
Then we should stay at home
I think i'll know you tonight

It's over
And over
This wave
I'm in

So slowly
Roll over
And flipped
The Earth

A pair of shoes
Some old reviews
That you kicked behind the door
A calling card
Is torn apart
And it's wasted on the floor
Some city scene
You're like a preteen
Chasing all the latest news
We're back at home
We fix old radios
Wiping off the dusty tunes

So
Please, please don't touch
Please, please don't touch

I keep it warm
At thirty-four
Like the way it was before
Your favorite shirt
A little dirt
Builds inside the bedroom drawer
'Cause all the paint
And the stains
All the papers and the fumes
They're all of you
They stay alive
And inside the things we knew

So
Please, please don't touch
Please, please don't touch

Empty stalls and shopping malls
That we'll never see again
Hotel lobbies like painful hobbies
That linger on
Time compares us, you feel embarrassed
Like you drive your parent's car
On another road, in another road
Kept in a jar

You're two-faced
all sideways
you're dry-eyed
and nightfly
your thin chokes
and splits spokes
you're high-staked
you're right-faked
your floor creeps
and deep sleeps
you catch up
you young pup
you old dog
you good fuck

double X12

you drive paved
you grew a shave
you hardball
you held gold
you last heard
backward
you luck charm
you black diamond
your next kin
your lost twin
your short-step
your better rip
you cast light
you snapshot

yeah, you're my double shadow
you're my double shadow X2
you're my.. double
you're my..
double shadow

You're two-faced
all sideways
you're dry-eyed
and nightfly
your thin chokes
and splits spokes
you're high-staked
you're right-faked
your floor creeps
and deep sleeps
you catch up
you young pup
you old dog

your short-step

you snapshot

yeah, you're my double shadow
you're my double shadow X2
you're my.. double
you're my..
double shadow

'Cause this phase is finally over
And there's only me and you
Cause the night can't wait forever
And I don't really know what to do

This flash escaped
To side your flare
You seize it moves about
You've lost me

Escape from the lights
Away from the nights we've known
With more broken hearts
No innocent flights that show
Cause it's the first time
And the last time tonight
But after awhile
You'll realize
That's how it goes

Your lips are full
Inside your coat
You reach the face
And fill this space

Escape from the lights
Away from the nights we've known
With no broken hearts
No innocent flights that show
Cause it's the first time
And the last time tonight
But after awhile
You'll realize
That's how it goes

Let's leave tonight
one last time
before it gets to cold

just one more round
in that tourist town
with another home for sale

and then one more year
becomes one more year
and you'll forget me soon i fear

through the crooked roads
and the static codes
on the hotel radios

[missing]... broken down again
[missing]... so still around .... from the rain
[missing]... and it won't play
[missing]... till you say you're ok

and the motor starts
it's cold and vicious heart
moves me close to you each day

and when i arrive
my god you'll be surprised
of all the lines that changed

and one more year
becomes one more year
and lights become less clear

so let's meet the road
tonight we'll drive back home
forget the hotel radios

Too young (x4)

Too young, Oh (x4)

Girl the night's not over (Oh, too young)
We're not getting older
They can chase forever
'Cause in the morning there's a million names to choose from
You don't care just take one
Leave a place to rest on
Because you're too young

Yeah you're too young
Oh you're too young
You're too young

Too young, Oh (x4)
Too young, Uh (x4)

There goes another moment,
Just wrap it up we own it
This night's a skill we hone it
And in the morning would you tell me that it's over?
You think that you'd do better
To stick with someone older
Because we're too young

Oh, too young (x4)

Feels like time we close the room
You're back in town
Guess ya heard the news:
I'll be gone

Turn to cough
Twist my arm
Call the girls
To nurse my charm

Yeah, I'm like a child
I'm like a child

Stay a while
We don't have long
We could talk for hours
Till my strength is gone
Though I get so tired
I still get wired

My pulse is still
When the doctors gone
I think of you and then I know
What went wrong

I'm like a child
I'm like a child

Close the windows in my room
Stay and hold me like you do
I've go the end in sight, yeah.

Like a child
(Yeah ya hold me)

Feels like time we close the room
You're back in town

Close the windows in my room
Stay and hold me like you do
I've go the end in sight, yeah.

Like a child
(Yeah ya hold me)

When no one cares
and the phone never rings
the nights are endless things

you're like a child that cries
and no one heeds the crying
you're like a star that dies
and seems to keep on dying

when no one cares
you count souvenirs
and they glisten with your tears

you can't believe a love like hers
could come from someone new

when no one cares but you
when no one cares but you
when no one cares but you

So this is goodbye
No need to lie;
This creature of pain
Has found me again.
So this is goodbye,
So this is farewell,
The fight's final bell
And I fall where I stand
So give your last hand
'cause this is goodbye
Tonight it's goodbye
Now I know why
Our love's lost in the rough
And I've had enough,
So this is goodbye

So stay
What for?
Get lost
Off the floor
'Cause there's fire all around
'Til my hands tap the door

Spring time
You're going to wish that we were friends
That we talked
You'll never feel so sure again
So now
There'll be no more lessons no more cures
'Til you get yours, baby, in the end

Oh run
Give way
Which face?
Whose name?
You're falling from my eyes
To the bottom, you're all the same

Spring time
You're going to wish that we were friends
That we talked
You'll never feel so sure again
So now
There'll be no more lessons no more cures
'Til you get yours, baby, in the end

Sweet one, sweet one under the sun
You're the sweet one, sweet one under the sun
Sweet one, sweet one under the sun
You're the sweet one, sweet one under the sun

Sweet one, sweet one under the sun
You're the sweet one, sweet one under the sun
Sweet one, sweet one under the sun
You're the sweet one, sweet one under the sun

When no one cares
and the phone never rings
the nights are endless things

you're like a child that cries
and no one heeds the crying
you're like a star that dies
and seems to keep on dying

when no one cares
you count souvenirs
and they glisten with your tears

you can't believe a love like hers
could come from someone new

when no one cares but you
when no one cares but you
when no one cares but you

Every bit has its time
Too many pieces to keep over
With every shape and design
That won't fit in

Match the best of your peers
If you can make it through the summer
Forget the paint on the walls
The dizzying view
There's barely the room

(Oooo-Ooo) I see you better when the lights are out
(Oooo-Ooo) I see you better when the lights are out
(Oooo-Ooo) Just give a second and I'll figure it out, yes, I will
(Oooo-Ooo) 'Cause practice is over

Quick stop, then the sticks
So he don't
Know how to keep this thing on rollin' out
We will jam 'n curse so it wouldn't begin

Find a space on the floor
Tape down the edges of your waistcoat
Remember the words, the lighting cues
It's all up to you

(Oooo-Ooo) I see you better when the lights are out
(Oooo-Ooo) I see you better when the lights are out
(Oooo-Ooo) Just give a moment and I'll beckon it out, yeah, I will
(Oooo-Ooo) 'Cause practice is over

(Oooo-Ooo) I see you...I see you better when the lights are out
(Oooo-Ooo) I see you...I see you better when the lights are out
(Oooo-Ooo) I see you...Just give a second and I'll figure it out, yes, I will
(Oooo-Ooo) 'Cause practice is over

With every morning chore
You look around once more
So that your eyes will adjust
To all the grain and dust

All the time
Spent over nothing
Seems like you're done
You are

I was pacing around
And just recording it down
I had nothing to say
I'm done for another day

'Cause I don't wanna share you
So don't say goodnight
Nooo
Don't say goodnight

It's too dull to pause
And to remember the cause
It's just to dull to care
So we cue from the northern air

And the icy edge
Will steal our reflections
When we pass on by
When we pass by

The days were open lately
Yet they ran on and on
Mistakes are never likely
And colors hardly run
But now they're all mixed up
And I don't know just what I see
You're over everything
All the lines escaping free

A moment interrupts me
And I can't find my place
Some voices all around here
But I won't back away
Instead I talk to you
And you're so hard to figure out
One minute into fear
The next you have me breathin' out

It's a hard wait (yeah)
Hard wait (yeah)
Hard wait (yeah)
It's a hard wait (yeah)

When every second takes its toll
With every kiss you kill me more
But I'm here and I decide
So come close and watch me 'til I die

It's true I understand too well
This press of touch and go
Still search your heart for secrets
That I'll find out on my own
Come on just give me something
Or let me be left alone
And hide my face in the crowd
Just keeps me moving, yeah moving, yeah

It's a hard wait (yeah)
Hard wait (yeah)
Hard wait (yeah)
Hard wait (yeah)

When you can never feel at home
'Cause you've been off and away too long
And it's too much just to leave again
So you figured that you'll stay instead

Ooooo-Oo-Ooo
Ooooo-Oo-Ooo
Ooooo-Oo-Ooo
Ooooo-Oo-Ooo

Ooooo-Oo-Ooooo, Oo
Ooooo-Oo-Ooooo, Oooo
Ooooo-Oo-Ooooo
Ooooo-Oo-OooooooooooOW

Hard wait (yeah)
Hard wait (yeah)
Hard wait (yeah)
Oh, it's a hard wait (yeah)

Just to teeter on the falling edge
And in the end it's just another stretch
To find someone you could understand
Find someone who's got their tact in hand
With every move and every stance
Every wink and every glance
You get caught up in another night
And you hit me with those hazel eyes

If you found the words, would you really say them?
Or stutter through the verse, with mumbled punctuation?
Remembering the line, an empty metaphor
That you savored by yourself, you're never cured
If I forgot the lines, is it easy enough to fake it?
Or do you need a moment to re-memorize
And model it like a curse half-disguised?

Leers, jeers, whispers and the tears
That final taste before you're taken away
Odds, ends, final amends
It's all right to say it
Just as long as you don't really think so

Give me a little room
To get on with concentration
Just enough to know
What I'm missing in education
Borrowing all the hours that you gave to me
It's a wonder I could ever breathe
Under all your thoughts
You'll hear the floating whisper
Of all the things you were that have been paralleled
All the voices that were raised and finally fell

Leers, jeers, whispers and tears
That final taste before you're taken away
Odds, ends, final amends
It's all right to say it
Just as long as you don't really think so

No lights
No show
No sex
That's all you get
No waits
No calls
No written tests for what you know

Leers, jeers, whispers and tears
That final taste before you're taken away
Odds, ends, final amends
It's all right to say it
Just as long as you don't really think so

Game over it's a new owner
Punches dripping off your pride
Move slower you're one day older,
Find the darkest side of the night

Sneak a picture
Above my shoulder
Don't make a sudden move
You'll spoil the light
Oh, no

Once, double stride
Roll again till it's right
Twice, sudden start
Move around, find the part

Pan forward and frame the border
Clean up every matching line
She looks perfect in every color
Find the one that's not too bright

Sneak a picture
Of a cheap performer
Don't let it go too far
'cause it's not the art
Oh, no
Oh, noo

Once, double stride
Roll again till it's right
Twice, sudden start
Move around, find the part

Once, double stride
Find your pace deep inside
Twice, sudden start
Sleep it off, where you are
Once, know your smile
Add some more on your bedroom pile
Twice, trick your heart
Show the lens who you think you are

Sneak a picture
Catch an empty corner
And dress it with a set of your past regrets
Then go
Then go

Till it's right, once double stride,
Find the part, twice sudden start,
Deep inside, once double stride,

Where you are, twice sudden start,
Bedroom pile, once know your smile,
Who you are, twice trick your heart

Thank you once again
I can barely get through it
I can't draw a line
without it falling off the page
And I can't hold a face
Without it moving from the frame
'Cause there's a tremor in my lips
and an itching in my eyes
It's all 'cause of you

So take the covers off
They been keeping off the dust
Steady down the arms
Hold then sudden cut
I see you in the dark
See you dancing with the lights
Copying your breath
Tracing so you know
that it's all 'cause of you

Hole, follow from the wire
Where it goes
Somewhere down the hall
In through your hands
Out your mouth
In a whisper
In through the walls
Where you start

Tell me what's the time
And how far left to go
'Cause all these dirty blinds
Keep us way to slow
So baby let it out
Let it burn into the sky
Watch it as it goes
Say you trust me then I know
That is all 'cause of you

Women like you
Know what to say
You know when to move
And know when you shouldn't stay

Women like you
Are never alone
but never too fast
and careful 'cause you say so
That's what your face shows

Women like you
Don't need to hear it
or whisper through the door
'Cause you know what your heart's for
Know what your heart's for

Blind men like me
can never hold on
(Then it's gone)
Blind men like me
Don't know how to behave
(at all)

Whatever you choose
The broken voice that I'll assume
Just creep to a crawl
And kiss me under each new moon

Holes barely spent
Crossed T's never read
Etching away
'til the end of the day
Save up for the rest
And you'll hope for the next

Hot spill
Cheap thrill
You're the last of the line
And wasted your time
You're too eager to stall
A bit too sure of it all
But left with your empty fate
You pick up a paperweight

So work it, baby, work it
Work it, baby, work it

Mix and blend
Words are written again and again
Oh, cycle the air
You swallow and stare
Alone at the setting sun
Well there goes another one
Counting down
For a night on the town

Now work it, baby, work it
Work it, baby, work it
Yeah, work it, baby, work it
Work it, baby
