Of The End
03:04

Well my sister smells like sage and weed
and there is no future for me
I wish I could go back in time and stop them from the finish line
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
I weep for my father, who has writing on the wall
He grew up inside that house when he was very small
I know that when I see your ghost, he wishes that he could
So when I wake up from my dreams, I tell him how you stood
You are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
And I weep for that house, that heart
And I weep for my friends
I am so afraid of the end
And I weep for that house, that heart
And I weep for my friends
I am so afraid of the end
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
They say it's all wide open, but I've never felt more enclosed
Where do we go?
Where do we go?
They say it's all wide open, but I've never felt more enclosed
And I weep for that house, that heart
And I weep for my friends
I am so afraid of the end
And I weep for that house, that heart
And I weep for my friends
I am so afraid of the end

Eight Years

Straight shot into Vermont
You ask me if I wanna go
Late night, the concrete is hot
We're making our way to the show
I cry, look at the stars
You pull me in and away from the cars passing by
In eight years, none of this will matter,
but I'm so glad I got to know you here and now
In eight years, you'll be long gone,
but I love you now, so tell me is that wrong?
Strip's dead, no one is out
We head on back to your parents' house
And we're there, making out on the couch
It's running through my head, you ask what's it about, I said
In eight years, none of this will matter,
but I'm so glad I got to know you here and now
In eight years, you'll be long gone,
but I love you now, so tell me is that wrong?

Hat Pin

Tell me, should we keep this hat pin?
I don't even know what it's for
I'm tired of making these decisions
That's not even half the drawer
I look at the pictures, black and white
but nothing's clear to me
I look at the future, then the past
How did it all come to be?
Sifting through your personal items
I feel nostalgic for a time that I was not around for
(When you fell in love)
Lace wedding gown that's in my basement now
You can see the youth on his face
I picked up a photograph from the 40's and realized you looked my age
Old cedar chest full of hope and some blankets
He says that it's nice and asks if we can take it
You're not really sure what is happening
Travel from room to room, carry all of your things
Sifting through your personal items
I feel nostalgic for a time that I was not around for
(When you fell in love)
Lace wedding gown that's in my basement now
You can see the youth on his face
I picked up a photograph from the 40's and realized you looked my age
Lace wedding gown that's in my basement now
Lace wedding gown that's in my basement now
Lace wedding gown that's in my basement now
I promise I'll keep it safe

White Walls

It felt so nice to drive by
and see your old house with the lights on
And the walls were so white
I can't remember if they'd been painted over
I hope they did it right
Your chair was gone
But the couch's placement was the same
I could barely see inside
And there were Christmas lights out on the lawn,
but not as nice as yours
And from the street I could see
Our golden nameplate on the door
Below the mailbox where the spiders stayed and made their home
And the walls were so white
Why did your lights always look warmer?

Dark Church

In my dreams, I was in a church
I was the staircase
I was made of oak
With vacant eyes, she pretended not to see me
Closed off from love, but your mother held me
Maybe you need some comfort
Baby, I can replace her
I met you there in a dark church
Wishing we could be older
As we hugged, she told me he had loved me
Stuffed with wool, he lay there and agree
And the Queen was in her corner watching us grieve
I could feel her stare
She wanted me to leave
And I know you're being pulled in every direction
But I just wanna be with you, and I want your attention
Maybe you need some comfort
Baby, I can replace her
I met you there in a dark church
Wishing we could be older

Lonely Heart

Lonely, ah lonely heart
I'll free you from where you are
Lonely, ah lonely heart
I'll keep you safe from harm
Lonely, ah lonely heart
Forever in my arms
Lonely, a lonely heart
And when it rains, it pours
You give, but they want more
And they will steal your youth
And they will hide the truth from you
And when it all comes down, down, down
And no one is around
I don't need to talk about it
I already notice that she's staring
She's staring
Lonely, ah lonely heart
I'll free you from where you are
Lonely, ah lonely heart
I'll keep you safe from harm
Lonely, ah lonely heart
Forever in my arms
Lonely, a lonely heart
Lonely, ah lonely heart
I'll free you from where you are
Lonely, ah lonely heart
I'll keep you safe from harm
Lonely, ah lonely heart
Forever in my arms
Lonely, a lonely heart
