The Sky Isn't Listening

darling, I

Think it's time we leave.

It's really coming down out there,

And so are you,

From this evening so full of life.

So full of friends we never knew we had.

We're just a couple of kids

Lost in November's kind grasp.

Yeah it'll come and we'll go.

Forever never seemed so close

As when you put your hands in my pockets

And said

"I'm quite fond of you kid,

I think we'll be just fine.

You keep the sky,

I'll settle for that look in your eyes."

And I know it's been a long day,

But you're still alive

So you've got nothing to complain about tonight.

We can walk if you'd like,

Or spin in circles -

I don't care.

Either way I'm in love with where we're going,

And the streetlights that lead us there

Will whisper in our ears

Sweet nothings about how

They wish they we're alive during the daytime.

Darling I think it's time we believe

The things they said were never true.

'Cause look at this,

Yeah look at me

Look at you.

We wear our flaws like a scarf

And count backwards because we can.

There's no need for reasons in the winter seasons (this year).

We're all too cold to care

We're all too lost to lie

We're all a little under the weather

We're all living to die

You say too much of a bad thing

Can never do one right.

I say it's all in bad timing.

Yeah just turn off the lights,

Let the moonlight lead the way.

Sing a song or two, I'd say.

It'll clear up soon there's no need

To call it a day.

I know I'm not one

To question life and how we live it

But I don't care,

I'm gonna do it anyway.

I don't give damn

What you have to say.

Yeah I'll speak as I please

I'll walk on water,

I don't mind

Getting my feet a little wet

To prove I'm right.

Those worries only run so deep.

Your doubt can't save you from the truth.

So caught up in the memory,

You don't know what to do.

Well I'll tell you in a word or two.

"Give up".

It's not worth it to save yourself.

You might as well save someone else.

And no I'm not talking about death.

Or god and the other fairytales you love.

This is a fucked up place your living in kid.

And all you need is love.
