Polite Sleeper - This is a Call текст песни

Play back the ones I like
I'd have nearly just a lifetime

Made a pact, I said I'd do it all twice
Cause it's never easy
When you fail the first time
I'm part fable
We're part real life
I've got some stories

Drinking water when the night called for something stronger
I never thought I'd be saying that now
With what started as just a simple night out
Turns to lies at sunrise

Freezing nights in the NorCal heat
Could you leave this mess or just sweep it east with me?
Little victories and some stability is what I need
It's what I need

So I sit here early morning trapped inside with the rain coming down, shooting up up up
And all that's dead is being brought back to life
With just a few hours of heaven opening up and

Maybe all I need is rest
Or a shower to clean of this dirty past
I'll gladly write in the dark

To fall back and recharge
Claim what we lost
We're almost there, just a little more
We're almost there, we're gonna use what we learned and

A restless wonder
I'm gonna turn my scenes over
And for every rooftop you had the pleasure of drinking on
There's a back porch where some kid's gonna say the same about
And for every band you played with
But for the life of you, forgot the name of
For every mile you spent in that van
For each old friend who left the bay when you did the same
I'm a kid with a chipped tooth
And a drunken lisp

And this is a call
To keep you friends close
You're gonna need them
When the time comes

And this is a call
To keep that mind sharp
You're gonna need it
When the time comes
