The Office

We were spitting off of ferries and falling so in love
Downtown with no money, but it was enough
And who knew dancing to no music was so much fun?
No money, no museum, but I had the sights
No money, no museum, but you by my side
From a third story window she screamed, “You're the love of my life”
"You're the love of my life"
Dancing on the ocean beats spinning on a beach
Take a picture for your pocket and burn everything
I’ll kill myself to shock my friends
And let them know love is never as bad as we intended
I’ll shine it on in spite of this
To let them know my life is half as good as I pretend
Hey there tear catcher, I know you don’t miss her
Faucets and sinks, they’re like eyes
She’s down on her knees blinded by the thought of her name in lights
I pray that you get there in time
Dancing on an ocean beats spinning on a beach
Take a picture for your pocket and burn everything
I’ll kill myself to shock my friends
And let them know love is never as bad as we intended
I’ll shine it on in spite of this
To let them know my life is half as good as I pretend
As I pretend, as I pretend
(If I ever make it home again, God, I’ll make this work)
Lately, see, I’ve been hung up on nothing
I’ve been staggering, trying to make it mean something, I’ll say
(If I ever make it home again, God, I’ll make this work)
Lately, see, I’ve been hung up on nothing
I’ve been staggering, trying to make it mean something, I’ll say
(If I ever make it home again, God, I’ll make this work)
Lately, see, I’ve been hung up on nothing
I’ve been staggering, trying to make it mean something, I’ll say
(If I ever make it home again, God, I’ll make this work)
Lately, see, I’ve been hung up on nothing
I’ve been staggering, trying to make it mean something, I’ll say
I’ll kill myself to shock my friends
And let them know love is never as bad as we intended
I’ll shine it on in spite of this
To let them know my life is half as good as I pretend
You always were my best regret
Signed sincerely, the kid now on top of your bed
You always were my best regret
Signed sincerely, the kid now on top of your bed
430 Dukes Road at night
We were feeling so alive
