We Killed It

Give Up The Ghost
(album: We´re Down ´Til We´re Underground)

Stars lead the way home then the sidewalks ending
And I don´t recall why we´re still pretending
Turn myself in for crimes I didn´t commit
I needed to feel truly innocent
There was a song and I forget the name of it
It seemed sincere and this is kind of how it went
"It´s one of those nights when you´re
not sure who the real you is anymore"
Generations can be whatever they want to
It´s mid-afternoon and I´ll be leaving soon
Survivors are few and far between,
between two parked cars headed for anywhere
cause anywhere is better than here
And in the ride, I become aware I´m probably not going anywhere

It´s one of those nights when you´re not sure who the real ´you´ is anymore
I said that I would end myself but I think too much about family, you see
I need to see if I can bask in a different world

This is my swan song to my criminal boys and girls
And no one really loves us as the sun does fall
And a fact without no truth just isn´t fact at all

I want out of here, I need to find the stars
but the sky´s hiding them as we are ashamed of what we´ve ruined
The words I write stuttered the times I spoke
I´ve never been too close with love, life, trust and faith
I need out of here, I need a head clear
I know my voice isn´t great but at least it´s sincere

We are so conditioned to fall
It´s sad the song of the year is still nothing at all
