Duet - The Airborne Toxic Event[00:00:00]
Written by:Mikel Jollett[00:00:00]
I've been away for far too long[00:00:20]
I've had my mind wrapped around this one song[00:00:22]
I heard last week on the radio while[00:00:25]
Driving near that place we used to go[00:00:29]
Where the track homes all look the same[00:00:34]
With the roofs and the tiles and the similar frames[00:00:37]
All these streets are so wide and these cars are so lame[00:00:40]
And on every block I heard the whisper of your name[00:00:43]
I spent so many evenings in my head[00:00:52]
I'd lie alone on an unmade bed[00:00:55]
Counting the minutes like numbered clocks[00:00:58]
Should I call should I write should I read should I stop[00:01:01]
I'm a child I'm a ghost I'm a slur I'm a boast[00:01:04]
I'm a prince I'm a king I'm a rhyme I'm a ring[00:01:07]
I'm unable to sleep I'm unable to sing[00:01:10]
I'm a desperate and lonely frightened unholy thing[00:01:13]
And you'd say la la la I'm so glad I'm over you[00:01:21]
As you reach for your drink and you tell me you like my shoes[00:01:28]
And I smile like a wretch there's not much else I can do[00:01:34]
I say I know what you mean yeah it's weird for me too[00:01:37]
Besides what would I sing about if I had you[00:01:40]
Kinda sounds like la la la[00:01:48]
La la la[00:01:51]
La la la la la[00:01:52]
La la la[00:01:56]
La la la[00:01:57]
La la la[00:01:58]
La la la[00:02:02]
La la la[00:02:03]
La la la[00:02:05]
La la la[00:02:08]
La la la[00:02:10]
I think maybe it was Radiohead[00:02:17]
That had this weird little beat and a keyboard instead[00:02:20]
Guitar playing chords I remember how bored[00:02:23]
You would get with those bands[00:02:25]
You always said they play the same three chords[00:02:27]
And you'd dance around in your T shirt and sing[00:02:38]
Don't you love modest mouse and adore promise ring[00:02:41]
Don't you wish that you could just avoid everything[00:02:44]
Join a band go on tour and think of me when you sing[00:02:47]
And I'd think la la la yeah that sounds okay to me[00:02:55]
And you'd fall on the bed and I'd fall down to my knees[00:03:02]
And I'd smile like my life depended on it[00:03:08]
That's so weird I was mostly right about that[00:03:11]
Always eager to love and eager to leave[00:03:14]
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la[00:03:23]
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la[00:03:35]
La la la[00:03:45]
And I'd think la la la all these songs are so untrue[00:03:51]
As I stare at this space inside of you[00:03:57]
And we don't belong and it sounds so wrong[00:04:03]
And you're beautiful with that gray stuff on[00:04:06]
I think yeah okay but maybe it's just the song[00:04:09]
And I miss you but it might just be the song[00:04:16]
