Northern_Lights_Death_Cab
I remember your silhouette
on Dyes Inlet
Against the silver sheen
of a moon like painted glass
Under stars out on a pier
a celestial sphere
We were weightless
as the waves that disappeared
Northern lights filled our skies
Empty nights synchronized
We shared a clove cigarette
on the parapet
As the TVs glowed
from the windows
of the model homes
And I'd never be that close
again to your lips and
perfect skin
As the tide receded
into the unknown
Northern lights filled our skies
Empty nights synchronized
Northern lights filled our skies
Empty nights synchronized
I remember your silhouette
on Dyes Inlet
Northern lights filled our skies
Empty nights synchronized
Northern lights filled our skies
Empty nights synchronized.....
Gold_Rush_Death_Cab
Gold rush
Digging for gold in my neighborhood
Gold rush
Where all the old buildings stood
Gold rush
And they keep digging it
down and down
Gold rush
So that their cars
can live underground
Gold rush
The swinging of a wrecking ball
Gold rush
Through these lath and
plaster walls
Gold rush
Is letting all the shadows free
Gold rush
The ones I wish still followed me
Change Followed me
followed me
Please don't change
Stay Followed me followed me
Stay the same
Gold rush
I remember a winter's night
Gold rush
We kissed beneath
the street lamp light
Gold rush
Outside our bar
near the record store
Gold rush
That have been condos
for a year and more
Gold rush
Now that our haunts
have taken flight
Gold rush
And been replaced
with construction sites
Gold rush
Oh how I feel like a stranger here
Gold rush
Searching for something
that's disappeared
Gold rush
Digging for gold in my neighborhood
Gold rush
For what they say is the greater good
Gold rush
But all I see is a long goodbye
Gold rush
A requiem for a skyline
Gold rush
It seems I never stopped losing you
Gold rush
As every dive becomes something new
Gold rush
And all our ghosts get swept away
Gold rush
It didn't use to be this way
Change
Be this way be this way
Please don't change
Stay Be this way be this way
Stay the same
Cranes
Be this way be this way
Devour the light
Strange
Be this way be this way
Appetite
I've ascribed these monuments
A false sense of permanence
I've placed faith in geography
To hold you in my memory
Gold rush
I'm sifting through these
wreckage piles
Gold rush
Through the rubble of
bricks and wires
Gold rush
Looking for something
I'll never find
Gold rush
Looking for something
I'll never find
Gold rush
Digging for gold in my neighborhood
Gold rush
Where all the old buildings stood
Gold rush
And they keep digging it
down and down
Gold rush
So that their cars
can live underground
Gold rush
It seems I never stopped losing you
Gold rush
As every dive becomes
something new
Gold rush
And all our ghosts get swept away
Gold rush
It didn't use to be this way
Change
Gold rush
It didn't use to be this way
Gold rush
It didn't use to be this way
Please don't change
Gold rush
It didn't use to be this way
Gold rush
It didn't use to be this way
Stay stay the same
It didn't use to be this way
Gold rush
It didn't use to be this way
Gold rush
It didn't use to be this way
change
Gold rush
Gold rush
Please don't change
Gold rush
Gold rush
Stay
Gold rush
Gold rush....
I dreamt we spoke, I dreamt we spoke again
It had been so long, it had been so long
My mind filled in the blanks
I dreamt we spoke, I dreamt we spoke again
It had been so long, it had been so long
Your voice was like a ghost
[Chorus 1]
In my head
In my head
[Verse 2]
Only in, yes, only in a dream
Is anything, is anything the way it used to be?
I dreamt we spoke, I dreamt we spoke again
But when I awoke, when I awoke
I could not remember
[Chorus 2]
Anything you said
Anything you said
Anything you said
Anything you said.
