lyrics

She said I’ve got an idea
Lets go into the city
Lets go do some acid let’s see what might happen
And she’s making it real the words on the page
The words that I wrote down, the words that she loved
That she loved

She doesn’t like cider
She doesn’t like coffee
She only likes smoking and making me think that
She wants me she doesn’t
Come on kid stop putting
Her name in your songs and her eyes in your memories

And she’s managed to find
A whole lot of acceptance
Fom thinking she’ll always have daydreams while miming
Correctness it’s breaking
Her patience is fraying
She hates all the rules and others she hates them she hates them

And I’ve got an idea
I’m gonna fill the space of our memories
With new ones
Because I can’t bear to think about them
As I become certain that no one I meet will be you

But I’ve got people I lie to
And tell them I love them
While hoping their face becomes yours in the nighttime
And sometimes I can’t quite
Remember your voice
Or your smile or your laugh or the way that you stared

Out the window while thinking
With something so gripping
A moment I’d hold if I could without feeling
And slipping and now
I’m a senior I’m cracking
I’m old and I hate it I hate it I hate it I hate it

But she used to like driving
And picking the playlist
And asking where were we and how long
Until when we’ve made it
Unaided by drugs just the fear
Of growing right into the ground we were raised in

And I’d stay in my head
And you’d slay the silence
But that was alright cause we both knew that words couldn’t
Hide us from fleeing
Or journeys depending
On how brave we felt when we left when we left but I still don’t know when we left
