All My Clean Friends Lyrics
I've gotta say I like it better
Now that we don't talk
Now that I can't remember
Why we spent our time just dodging obstacles
So let me, Yeah let me count up all the ways that I've been through
All of the steps it takes me not to think of you
And you'll find me catching fireworks out on my front porch
I look my worst
I need practice standing still
Because I never really knew how to end a day
And my mind doesn't know how to stay the same
With all these realizations you'd think that I'd find a way to change
Like when I first moved in I was smoking cigarettes my face to the window
Three weeks later I'm in bed and I'm still,
Yeah I'm still chained to all the drags that'll stop and fuck my health
But I've never found anything that works so well
And I've been living in a world of sharp, sharp pain
We don't think too much but the rent gets paid
I need practice standing still
Because I never really knew how to end a day
And my mind doesn't know how to stay the same
With all these realizations you'd think that I'd find a way to change
And you'll find me catching fireworks out on my front porch
I look my worst
I need practice standing still
Because I never really knew how to end a day
And my mind doesn't know how to stay the same
Since all my clean friends moved away
Since all my clean friends moved away
I never found a way to change
I never found a way to change
Since all my clean friends moved away
I never found a way to change
Everything just stays the same
Now that we don't talk
Now that I can't remember
Why we spent our time just dodging obstacles
So let me, Yeah let me count up all the ways that I've been through
All of the steps it takes me not to think of you
I look my worst
I need practice standing still
Because I never really knew how to end a day
And my mind doesn't know how to stay the same
With all these realizations you'd think that I'd find a way to change
Three weeks later I'm in bed and I'm still,
Yeah I'm still chained to all the drags that'll stop and fuck my health
But I've never found anything that works so well
We don't think too much but the rent gets paid
I need practice standing still
Because I never really knew how to end a day
And my mind doesn't know how to stay the same
With all these realizations you'd think that I'd find a way to change
I look my worst
I need practice standing still
Because I never really knew how to end a day
And my mind doesn't know how to stay the same
Since all my clean friends moved away
I never found a way to change
I never found a way to change
Since all my clean friends moved away
I never found a way to change
Everything just stays the same

you there, with the LP sleeve, you should throw up a few of the missing songs from my roaring 20s when you get a chance.

Thanks man! I've been trying to figure it out - I was too impatient to wait for the physical copy so I got the direct download.

Such a good band.

And yeah - Put the rest up.

An old girlfriend who moved away comes back for a visit. You are still doing the same bullshit that forced her out the door. Until you see her again you hadn't felt ashamed. Seeing her again reminds you of the plans and dreams you had together. It reminds you of all the people you have known who got their shit together and moved on to "better" things. You stayed the same and don't know why you couldn't find a way to change.
