"I'll Still Destroy You" lyrics
"I'll Still Destroy You"
It's so easy to set off
The molecules and the caplets
They all have something against me
Nothing I do makes me feel different
This one's like your sister's best friends
In a bath calling you to join them
Can't avoid them
This one's like your mother's arms
When she was young and sunburned in the '80s
It lasts forever
The more level they have me
The more I cannot stand me
I have helpless friendships
And bad taste in liquids
This one's like the wilderness
Without the world, I'm gonna miss those long nights
With the windows open
I keep re-reading the same lines
Always up at 5am every morning
Like a baby
It's just the lights coming on
It's just the lights coming on
I have no possessions
No point of view or vision
I'm just trying to stay in touch with
Anything I'm still in touch with
The sky is getting white
I can't find a lighter anywhere, I'm going crazy
But I'm not crazy
Put your heels against the wall
I swear you got a little bit taller since I saw you
I'll still destroy you
It's just the lights coming on
It's just the lights coming on
Thanks to Alexis for correcting these lyrics.

The New Pornographers - "Play Money" I only play for money, honey
Look at what this fun has done to me
It has me gunning for the country
Sky's memory and moonless
Vision copied from the bootlegs
We are out of tune so mostly tuneless...
The Mountain Goats - "Rain In Soho" No one knows where the lone wolf sleeps
No one sees the hidden treasure in the castle keep
No one learns the secret name
No one burns in the absent flame
No one broke D.B. Cooper's fall
No one hopes...
The War On Drugs - "Clean Living" I waited all my life to come
Running through the field when I see you
In the end, when you're young, you follow
Shadows even though they fade
Baby, you're...
In the end, there was a red light...
Japanese Breakfast - "The Woman That Loves You" You're embarrassing me
With a postponed marriage and a stalled out car
Then you leave me in the back with half a window rolled down
Like a dog (like a dog) in the summer heat
Don't you think? Don't...
Arcade Fire - "Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)" And if the snow buries my...
My neighborhood
And if my parents are crying,
Then I'll dig a tunnel from my window to yours
Yeah, a tunnel from my window to yours
You climb out the chimney...
