lyrics

The buzzes in the background of your worn out 70s speakers
Your father gave you on a whim, but you've used them like a gift from God

In the tiny gaps of sound between the high hat and the snare
And the ringing of the guitar
I see the sum of everything I've ever been or wanted to be
And all I really am

Picking out the pieces that used to be a whole
Watching the rays of light filter off the source
Each pointing to a new direction
Another night where you go to bed completely satisfied
Cause this is where you're supposed to be

And wearing the flag as bed sheets
The one we were taught to believe in
The one barely worthy to keep us warm
Its blue feeling more cold
Than the heat from the whitest stars
Can keep red blood warm

You know everything you've ever wanted
To say to every girl you've ever fallen for
Or thought you wanted to hold
Until the sun came up to another humid humble day
Well it's for the best you kept your mouth shut
At least this time, at least tonight
