It Was My Season Lyrics - The Silver Gymnasium - Okkervil River

Tell me a reason 

To break things off 

Stop the bleeding 

When it's my season 

Mind was just revving 

Your eyes they went hard 

Our parents were freaking 

But it was our season 

All that time ago

If you want to stop our thing you'll stop my heart 

All this pain inside's still just too sharp 

What was I thinking? 

Step out of your trailer 

And into this dark 

It's warm and it's breathing 

And it's our season 

Your dad is half sleeping 

But really he's gone 

Can you hear his VCR weeping 

They crossed his wires completely 

When they made him fire that gun 

I'll say to you: to cut it off's to cut me down 

If they take me out of school, you out of town 

I called a friend, my world at end, my words unwound 

I said: 

We're dumb, we're dead, shut up about it now 

Photos 

I won't say I'm sorry 

And how would they know? 

Below the Atari 

Well, I could feel your heart was just going 

We'll meet on the weekend 

Your dad won't be home 

Your sister's out cleaning 

You don't need to speak it 

Because I know, baby, I know 

I said I know 

You know I know 

I know (that it was our season) 

Baby, I know (it's hard to believe it) 

I said I know (there isn't a reason) 

You know I know (it's only a feeling) 

When I look back on it now 

Remember mixed up I got 

Before they got me sorted out 

All that heart-in-my-mouth 

All that head-filled-with-doubt 

It's fading out 

I hardly think about it now 

They say that I'll go to college 

And you will stay home 

And watch while I'm leaving 

The cold will just creep in 

Oh, Jason, I know
