"Curtain Call" lyrics
"Curtain Call"
Well here it is, a final curtain call
A gesture of gratitude and ego
I'd be remiss if I didn't piss myself
One last public act of disrepute to regret
People used to pay to watch me sing and play
But it seems more and more they come to spit in my face
I'm tired of speaking up and speaking clearly
So the idiots in the back can hear me
From now on it's do's and don'ts
To a room of antique maps and ghosts
Where I have been, where I will go

And I'm not...
Pinegrove - "Amulets" Little amulets
Along the window
I got this feeling
Like I'll always love you
But I know that feeling
How it moves through
Ooh, and through me
And it's changing already
Then on the ambulance
And out...
The Hotelier - "Goodness Pt. 1" When the sun rested on olive shoulders,
And the wind kissed the back of your neck,
I would lay and absorb in the silence,
In your language I haven't learned yet.
In the tune of the national anthem,...
