Letra The Paris of Nowhere - The Wonder Years
We're building shrines to Saint Nick Foles
In the windows, in the living rooms
I'm playing "Dancing with a Ghost"
In the soft light of the afternoon
I'm alone in the house where your sister died
We're building shrines to Saint Nick Foles
In the churches, in the alleyways
I watched the river overflow
From the Schuylkill in the pouring rain
I'm alone in the house where your sister died
On the block that you lived your entire life
And I take the same train I did at nineteen
And we danced on the benches in an empty Market East
Throw me into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
The black lung of the east coast
The Paris of nowhere
Into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
Desperate, kind, and cutthroat
The Paris of nowhere
(The Paris of nowhere)
We're planting gardens in the potholes
No one comes to fill them in
I'll love you when nobody else will
All shoulder chips and paper skin
You're a kid swinging off of a traffic light
You're a block party outside a junkyard fire
Throw me into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
The black lung of the east coast
The Paris of nowhere
Into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
Desperate, kind, and cutthroat
The Paris of nowhere
Two feet of snow on the ground
And it's still coming down
So I'm gonna dig you out
I'm gonna dig you out
It must get lonely without Colleen and Cheryl around
I'm gonna dig you out
I'm gonna dig you out
Still got the flowers we found taped to the door of our house
I'm gonna dig you out
I'm gonna dig you out
You were always looking out
Throw me into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
The black lung of the east coast
The Paris of nowhere
Into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
Desperate, kind, and cutthroat
The Paris of nowhere
The Paris of nowhere
The Paris of nowhere
In the windows, in the living rooms
I'm playing "Dancing with a Ghost"
In the soft light of the afternoon
I'm alone in the house where your sister died
We're building shrines to Saint Nick Foles
In the churches, in the alleyways
I watched the river overflow
From the Schuylkill in the pouring rain
I'm alone in the house where your sister died
On the block that you lived your entire life
And I take the same train I did at nineteen
And we danced on the benches in an empty Market East
Throw me into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
The black lung of the east coast
The Paris of nowhere
Into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
Desperate, kind, and cutthroat
The Paris of nowhere
(The Paris of nowhere)
We're planting gardens in the potholes
No one comes to fill them in
I'll love you when nobody else will
All shoulder chips and paper skin
You're a kid swinging off of a traffic light
You're a block party outside a junkyard fire
Throw me into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
The black lung of the east coast
The Paris of nowhere
Into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
Desperate, kind, and cutthroat
The Paris of nowhere
Two feet of snow on the ground
And it's still coming down
So I'm gonna dig you out
I'm gonna dig you out
It must get lonely without Colleen and Cheryl around
I'm gonna dig you out
I'm gonna dig you out
Still got the flowers we found taped to the door of our house
I'm gonna dig you out
I'm gonna dig you out
You were always looking out
Throw me into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
The black lung of the east coast
The Paris of nowhere
Into the Delaware
And leave me down at the bottom there
Desperate, kind, and cutthroat
The Paris of nowhere
The Paris of nowhere
The Paris of nowhere

Year of the Vulture
I ram my head into a brick wall, And I'll swing until it breaks, If this is when the reign falls, I'm dragging you down with me, Silhouettes in the dead of the night, It's the year of the vulture, I can tell by the...
You’re the Reason I Don’t Want the World to End
It's already June, The light paints you pink, When it breaks through the cherry trees, You shout at the moon, We lay on your swing, I'm right where I'm meant to be, But the gray moves aside, For the first time in my...
Songs About Death
Been writing songs about death so long that I wish I could just go numb, And think of funeral processions and the way they fuck the traffic up, Another call in the dark that takes the air out of my broken lungs, Been...
Doors I Painted Shut
I don't wanna die, At least not without you, Alone here in the August heat, And the shadows of the afternoon, I don't wanna die, But I'm petrified of getting up, There's a draft coming from underneath, A door I swore...
Summer Clothes
Justin and I have got the windows down, The AC is busted, it's hotter than hell, But I hate myself a little less, When the salt air hits my skin, Sat on the benches when the shops had closed, Saw the Ferris wheel...
