verse 1/ intro)
I can't take this possession
Any more than heartaches and lemonade
I won't leave trailing breadcrumbs
Beneath my bed
So long live children of holidays,
Long live the absence of youth
Forget me, never regret me,
Those farewells in shoes….
(verse 2)
S'alright stepping on small little creatures
Cause they can't feel it one bit
S'alright sleeping through goodbyes and fare-the-wells
They don't give a shit (Oh, no, now…)
You've got something stuck in your eye
Least I know that you aren't tearing up
Stone's not that flattering on you
So why don't you just give it up?
(chorus)
Down with the money and down with the skies,
Down with the crown on his head
I'm done with this city and done with the lies,
Leaving a memoir instead
Laws on love and single-play
Never will erase the day
Can't we just go home instead?
So down with the money and down with the skies
And out with what's under your bed.
(verse 3)
I don't care for chivalry; maybe I'm withering
Away from the lights in your eyes
But who wants a turn on a hand-me-down bike
When everyone here's had a ride?
I don't care for victory, comrades, or history,
Things that bring me to my knees
You think that we're all so in love with your face
But you've got something stuck in your teeth
(chorus)
Down with the money and down with the skies,
Down with the crown on his head
I'm done with this city and done with the lies,
Leaving a memoir instead
Laws on love and single-play
Never will erase the day
Can't we just go home instead?
So down with the money and down with the skies
And out with what's under your bed.
Down with the money, down with the skies,
Up with the mimes and with all their disguise
Done with this city, you're done with the lies,
I'm done with the lights in your eyes
I'm done with the lights in the sky.
Forget me, never regret me,
Those farewells in shoes….
Farewells in Shoes
