lyrics

Can the past ever hear me?
Could you laugh soft and sweetly?
Like the first time you met me
Out in that brand new city

All our friends are loud and lovely
You never make me feel guilty
Bad or sad or filthy
Uptight, slight or shitty

Smile wide at the right time
Absolve me of all my crimes
You bring the centrepiece and I will bring the wine

These open mics are all the rage now
Everyone here desperate to make a sound
I can barely make your face out
For all the fuckers singing in the crowd

Take a while to take the bus home
A couple miles ain't so far to go
I feel shy but you and I know
In style, so ends our latest show

Look at me through blurry eyes
I'll pay each and every fine
You be the centrepiece and I will bring the wine

Is the future nearer to me?
When is the next time I'll see?
Like the last time you met me
In a very different city

My friends never forget me
I owe you individually
For all the grace and mercy
The guts and all the glory
