And as the story unfolds over time, things we once knew
they do dissolve into the sky. She swears she sees a
brand new constellation every time somebody we know
dies, it is no consolation prize but we’ll remember
you. So to get good sleep at night, silence the
oracles, they’re singing from inside. Nobody really
wants to know the future, we just want to hear “you’ll
be alright” and we’ll be alright. These days they will
find us learning that we had it all wrong; but these
days they will find us unashamed because we were
learning all along, and the radio plays a familiar
song.
And to this magic we hold on, I just don’t want to feel
its loss until it’s gone. It was in an eerie glow I
finally left you lonely, left the TV on. If I have one
regret it’s letting this whole nihilistic shit charade
live on! You know it scares the hell out of me when my
friends think they have nobody to lean on! …And the
radio plays a familiar song.
And in the darkness of my room I keep conversing with
the man in the moon. I know he’s going to tell me
something that I want to hear I bet it’ll happen soon
because all the books I have read just don’t read
right, say to save your soul you’ve got to hide
yourself inside, or forget about the world that you
perceive, no, we are here for such a little while.
These days they will find us learning that we had it
all wrong, but these days they will find us unashamed
because we’ve been learning all along, and the radio
plays a familiar song and you are loved you are loved
you are really loved.
