head north - chosen ones lyrics

Loading...

chosen ones, when i thought that we were young
i called you through a pane of glass, and stared at you as you walked past
now you look so sad
i’m sick of peeling carpet pads, and staring out a front window
waiting for you to get home

i’ll help you dig a garden bed
and scare the landlord from collecting your money
you can stay with me

what do you mean ’move away’?
don’t you think it’s easier to stay?
besides, i slip on tile floors
and the neighbor’s cat sleeps on your porch
you should call your friends to play
i don’t really want to watch you drink all day
i’ll bite you if you don’t get up and let me take you for a walk

like we did at roxy curtains
distant coasts, and streets that we both knew too well
you looked so proud when we would rest in gentle beams
of afternoon sun, summer breeze
we’re not so young, now
us chosen ones

why is your suitcase open on the floor?
i would prefer it in the same place it was the weeks
and weeks, and weeks, and weeks it was before
is there something terrible that i should know?

some days when it seems like everything will leave +
and when you think of all the things you did that you wish you did differently +
i need you to remember all the good we shared
i need you to forgive yourself for times you weren’t there
my love for you is simple
it’s never going to leave +
once i had chosen you
and you had chosen me

cotton ears waving in the briefest summer breeze
or paw+prints from floorboards you’d wipe up twice a week
or garbage in the alley i threw over the lawn +
you’re so scared about the future, but all the future’s gone
you’re gonna miss it all
you’re gonna miss it all
you’re gonna miss it all
you’re gonna miss it all, if you’re not looking

i loved you like nothing
good mourning
