We Don't Have a Place in the Stars

from Muted Damp by Thundercloud Kid

/

lyrics

I have things of yours that you can never get back,
like time and tears and miles and secrets from your past,
not to mention every shred of your innocence.

The windows of your heart are battened for me,
but we both cut our teeth and knees on the same streets,
so here's to you and me and what we used to be.

I swear, these start as angry songs, but they always turn sad,
because I've got this unshakable, misplaced faith in our spark.

And I think I'll always carry this torch for you while you hold on to nothing but rancor.
Yes, I think I'll always carry this torch while you just try to forget.

You flag's been flying at half mast and you can't hide it, it's been four and a half years of mourning through a thin veil of tact.
Don't forget that leaving was your call, and now I fear that our place in the stars is more likely six feet underground.

I swear, these start out as angry songs, but they always turn sad,
because this familiar silence turns to familiar black.

rock & roll art. this is your cue to turn on your heel,
and never look back.
this play button will only break your heart
and steal the light from your eyes.
its a key and you wont like whats on the other side of the door:
elegant lies, but lies all the same,
its not worth all the side effects
or the amount of sleep youll lose.
because this is just bad news,
and it will leave you in the gutter. ... more
