Flashlight
(专辑: The Front Bottoms - 2011)
Please fall asleep so I
can take pictures of you and hang them in my room so when I
wake up feel like yeah everything's alright You are still here, you are still happy, you are still smiling and laughing you are still the
only thing and everything I
need in my life And it goes in in out through the
mouth breathing exercises I
will never figure out til I
am running in circles or (I am) walking in circles or (I am) crawling in circles or lying on the
ground And I
can hear your dog whistle from my bedroom Yeah yeah And I
can see a
flashlight cutting up the
trees behind my house Yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah She's says a
lot of the
kids we graduated with are now homeless which puts them in mad shady situations with mad shady people if not everyday then on an every other day basis And she's probably with a
few of them right now and they are probably just drinking and talking about how she misses getting fucked up and hanging around And he says "Hey you're good at that" and she says "Thanks, it's kind of all I
got," and then she looks away and says "It's also all I
need." And I
can smell plastic burning I
can smell chemicals breaking down. I
got your last three e-mails the
ones where you said, "I was sorting some things out" And he will be able to hear her dog whistle from his bedroom Yeah yeah And I
can see a
flashlight cutting up the
trees behind my house Yeah yeah And I
will read the
flashing like a
morse code explanation that will mean nothing but take all night to figure out, out, out... (Please fall asleep so I
can take pictures of you and hang them in my room so when I
wake up feel like yeah everything's alright) when I
am sad, I
am sad but when I'm happy, oh god I'm happy there's just no place in-between for us to meet (You are still here, you are still happy, you are still smiling and laughing you are still the
only thing and everything I
need in my life) when I
am sad, I
am sad but when I'm happy, oh god I
am happy there's just no place in-between for us to meet (Please fall asleep so I
