lyrics

New dawn, Breath in, I'm daydreaming you all, away from here
Take the tie from around my neck, ill tie it up around your head, you go show

lift that head from the ground, I hear that there's love somewhere in this town
so lets go and find it, share it, and divide it and carpet bomb it to the ground,
Slow day, you move when you want, and I swear to god ill burn every dam clock,
if thats what you needed to just stop believing,
the words that the walls whisper in your ears each night

laugh lines around our eyes are starting to set
artifacts from the days when we were not scared, to just say what we meant with out frivolous guilt,
concerning our hearts and our mental health
so ill carefully construct the order of words, to make me sound smarter to make myself hear
but I never could believe in such a dumb fickle thing,
you are who you are and I am what I am I have learnt.

when you cant shake that feeling and you stare and the ceiling all night
we went together like a bird needs its feathers
and theres buildings on fire in the rear view mirror tonight
let marvin and etta make me feel better alright
