this is one of those songs that creates peace and stress all in one in a very comforting way. phoebe describes unsettling events in a way that seems like she's personally telling you a story, like an old friend that just got back from a trip. throughout the album connors, and phoebes lyrics give this same effect, and thats part of why this album establishes so much peace whenever i listen to it. why im writing this is because i cant find any information on what event verse 2 actually is. phoebe and connor usually writes about personal events in a real and poetic way so im just wondering on where verse 2 comes from.
"It was hot in the arena
Good men die like dogs
My hero plays to no one, in a parking lot
Even though there's no one around
He broke a leg and the house came down
A smattering of applause
A sliver moon and a cover song"
