Jejune Stars Lyrics - The People's Key - Bright Eyes

Every new day is a gift, it's a song of redemption 

Any expression of love is the way to return 

To that place that I think of so often, but now never mention 

The one the voice in the back of my head says that I don't deserve 

Come fire, come water, come karma 

We're all in transition 

The wheel I'm becoming erases the physical mind 

Until all that remains is a staircase of misinformation 

And the code we inherit, the basis, the essence of life 

So I go, umbrella under my arm 

Into the green of the radar 

How'd it get so dark in the day? 

It's just so bizarre 

Is it true what we're made of? 

Why do I hide from the rain? 

Inside's so cloudy, nostalgia 

But there are no features 

Look at ourselves through a porthole 

The passage of time 

See that sunny day that we snuck out, hid under the bleachers 

Kissed as the band marched 

Everything fell into line 

So I go, umbrella under my arm 

Into the green of the radar 

How'd I get so lost? I'm amazed 

It's just so bizarre 

All the things I'm afraid of 

Why do I hide from the rain? 

Sure I have my doubts 

But I know it now 

We are Jejune stars 

So it starts again 

At our childhood's end 

I'll die young at heart 

So I go, umbrella under my arm 

Into the green of the radar 

How'd it get so dark in the day? 

It's just so bizarre 

If it's true what we're made of 

Why do I hide from the rain?
