"Sylvan" lyrics
"Sylvan"
Hey Sylvan, what's to say?
It feels so strange to sing your name this way
I'm lost for words, still looking for the one
Still searchin on the tip of my tongue
Hey Silvan, do you recall
The summer we spent moving bricks and building cement walls?
Through every midday, everyone would call
We laughed along and smiled at em all
And on the day, everybody came
You were there in a wooden picture frame
Reminding me of a wedding we went to where you cried for the bride and now she's here to cry for you
I guess we all fall in, fall out
Every good story has to end somehow
Here's your standing over on your last bow
You left the stage on fire and they'll never put it out
Never put it out
Hey Silvan, where'd you go?
Yeah, I know you were always leavin early from the parties
We would throw
We chased you down before you were gone
Oh, I wish I knew the street that you're on
Now it's safe, you never went away
You're in the ground, sure not living in a grave
I look around and I see what you gave
All proof of the life you embraced
I guess we all fall in, fall out
Every good story has to end somehow
Here's your standing over on your last bow
You left the stage on fire and they'll never put it out
Never put it out [x17]

So I packed my things and ran
Far away from all the trouble

Alone we travelled armed with nothing but a shadow
We fled far away...
The Oh Hellos - "Hello My Old Heart" Hello my old heart
How have you been
Are you still there inside my chest?
I've been so worried
You've been so still

Don't tell me that we've...

In Brooklyn or some place like that
With life and taxis flying past
We tore that dance hall down

Ooh-ooh-ooh (hey!)
Not a soul up ahead and nothing behind

Then you're the queen of nothing...
Wild Party - "When I Get Older" Down by the dock
Sits a man on a rock
With his hands in the air
Hear him talk, hear him swearing
When I get older
I'm gonna be there to hold her
Long as I sleep through the dark and make up my mind...
