"Say Goodbye" lyrics
"Say Goodbye"
After we say, "Goodnight"
I smoke another twenty cigarettes before I close my eyes
If I'm up past midnight
Might have a chance to say, "Good morning," right before I cut the light
When I wake up at dawn, I reach across the void, just hoping
We can share a moment's time
And then the evening's mine
And I can finally say, "I love you"
Right before I say, "Goodnight"
Oh why, oh why
Do I even try?
When I don't wanna say goodnight
And every day without you feels one closer to goodbye
I just need to make this world seem right
You just sleep tight till I'm on your side
Know you need to go to sleep
There's comfort knowing that at least you can escape this heat
I'll sit up and watch this world burn bright
I'll be alright when you're on my time
They didn't change the date
That's another month to wait
It's another month to try
To hold onto a lie
Oh why, oh why
Do I even try?
Every other girl
We'd just cut the line
But I don't wanna say goodnight
Is every day without you feels one closer to goodbye?
I just need to make this world seem right
You can sleep tight till I'm on your side
When you finally go to sleep
There's comfort knowing that at least you can escape this heat
I'll sit up and watch, this world's on fire
I'll be alright when you're on my time
You're on my time
When you're on my time
When you're on my time
You're on my time
You're on my time
You're on my time
You're on my time
Whoa, you're on my time
Whoa, you're on my time
Oh, you're on my time
You're on my time
I'll be alright when you're on my time

Real Estate - "Darling" The black and yellow finches
That nest in our new ferns

Wait for the warm sun to return
Impatiently, as I wait for you

Courtney Barnett & Kurt Vile - "Over Everything" When I'm all alone on my own by my lonesome
And there ain't a single 'nother soul around
I wanna dig into my guitar, bend a blues riff that hangs
Over everything

Stealing my heart and brain
Flaming my every cell
You make me feel myself

Will you stand in this land?
Will you...
Chairlift - "Bruises" I tried to do handstands for you
I tried to do headstands for you
Every time I fell on you yeah every time I fell

But every time I fell for you

What would I do without the way that you have?
Funeral singers waiting
Charity fails the child that you have
Lighthouse keep a brazen built
Spread like a fog, certain...
