andrew paley - caroline lyrics

[verse 1]
i’ve been writing it all down
tracing narrative arcs
in a sea of prior art
i’ve been running to headwinds
would’ve made you proud
keep kicking when you go down

[pre chorus]

caroline i
notice when you laugh
you don’t smile, you look sad
you look sad

[chorus]
but she gets lost and doesn’t mind
heaven is the weight of all alone
the light gets in from other lives
making up the sound of someone home

[verse 2]
and i’ve been raging at headlines
making uselessness art
while the whole thing comes apart
and i’ve been listing on empty
push till the lights go out (till the lights go out)
it’s nеver all that easy
till you know what you are and arеn’t
[pre chorus]
caroline i
notice when you laugh
you don’t smile, you look sad
caroline i
notice when you laugh
you don’t smile, you look sad
you look sad

[chorus]
but she gets lost and never minds
heaven is the weight of all alone
the light gets in from other lives
making up the sound of someone home

[refrain]
she says, “the world’s on fire and i don’t mind
the world’s on fire and i feel fine”
she says, “the world’s on fire and i don’t feel a thing at all”
she says, “the world’s on fire and i don’t mind
the world’s on fire and i feel fine”
she says, “the world’s on fire and i don’t feel a thing at all”

[bridge]
all neon nights, electric lives (she says, “the worlds on fire and i don’t mind)
from darkness to the blinding light (the world’s on fire and i feel fine”)
she says, “the world’s on fire and i don’t feel a thing at all”
no saints in the heavens, there’s no “mean to be”
don’t be religious when it comes to the promise of biology
from a flame in the dark to a flash on the screen
you can give up on hope or give up on the dream
they’re not the same thing, they’re not the same d+mn thing

[pre chorus]
caroline i
notice when you laugh
you don’t smile, you look sad

[closing chorus]
she gets lost and doesn’t mind
heaven is the weight of all alone
the light gets in from other lives
making up the sound of someone home
who can sleep on sleepless nights?
wandering till daylight comes
with all this light from other lives
the world’s on fire and i don’t mind
