"Going To A Town" lyrics
"Going To A Town"
(feat. ANOHNI)
But I don't know where I'm going, searching
For that place is not inside me
I wonder where I'll go, don't we always renew?
'Cause we knew this ain't had no good
I'm going to a town that has already been burnt down
I'm going to a place that has already been disgraced
I'm gonna see some folks who have already been let down
I'm so tired of America
I'm gonna make it up for all of The Sunday Times
I'm gonna make it up for all of the nursery rhymes
They never really seem to want to tell the truth
I'm so tired of you, America
Making my own way home, ain't gonna be alone
I got a life to lead, America
I got a life to lead
Tell me, do you really think you go to hell for having loved?
Tell me, enough of thinking everything that you've done is good
I really need to know, after soaking the body of Jesus Christ in blood
I'm so tired of America
I really need to know
I may just never see you again, or might as well
You took advantage of a world that loved you well
I'm going to a town that has already been burnt down
I'm so tired of you, America
I'm making my own way home, ain't gonna be alone
I got a life to lead, America
I'm making my own way home, ain't gonna be alone
I got a life to lead, America
I'm making my own way home, ain't gonna be alone
I got a life to lead, America

Belle & Sebastian - "When We Were Very Young" I can see mountains
I can see sky

Blake Mills - "Skeleton Is Walking" A skeleton is walking
A sacrificial cow
To the other side
To eat away a cloud

Snapping at the crease

M. Ward - "new kerrang" She takes a stick
And she makes a fist
And shakes her wrist
And that old drum kit makes a bang
Then she stops
Says something's off
Snare don't pop
Cymbals don't kerrang
So it's out with the old

Heaven descend
Voice of a friend
I could die happy
If I started again

It was all on me
Time would bend
Like a drunken tree
What makes me lose my head
