"Bad Actors" lyrics

"Bad Actors"

The deepest scream that I've ever seen
Is now a living memory
Catch your gaze on darker days
The sun would rise in spite of me

How are we supposed to live in darkness from now on?
If we walk each other home
We just walk each other home

Laugh at ancient history on borrowed time
Memories returning when an old friend dies
Oh, it's alright
Oh, this ain't no permanent goodbye

Barrel chested, shaping walls
With aerosol and alcohol
Sideways glance, your master plan
Laughed so hard, you broke your hand

How are we supposed to live in silence from now on?
As we walk each other home
And just walk each other home

Laugh at ancient history on borrowed time
Memories returning when an old friend dies
Oh, it's alright
Oh, this ain't no permanent goodbye

'Cause Saturday's for chemicals, Sunday, we'll retire
Read to me between the words, singing your song for a while
Melody will linger on somewhere in my mind
Harmonies that comfort me where all ghosts meet

Laugh at history on borrowed time
Memories returning when an old friend dies
Oh, it's alright
Oh, this ain't no permanent goodbye
