Lyrics:
Drew a constellation on the ceiling in my room
High heart motivation for the day I shoot the moon
But I could’ve aimed If I cut a hole in the roof
The guiding lights in redshift, fading, make my stomach sink
The North Star Bar got torn down before I could even drink
I went from green, to mean and jaded, hospice nurse to hospice patient,
Seeing off a bygone era, Emerald City’s looking ancient
By the time we made it up here, everything I loved about it had been gone.
Like light pollution yuppies forced high noon at sunset strip.
The old haunts in my hometown: boards in Theseus’ ship.
I watched that place become a stranger to us all.
I’m gonna make your deathbed at a table at some pub
Raise a glass over your carcass, here’s to all the ones you loved
The world I know is not the one I hoped it was
But it was there.
The world I know is not the one I hoped it was
But it was there.
