Nana Grizol - Blackbox lyrics

rate me

You fell in love with the sunshine<br />

and you took a walk with a boy<br />

you spent half a year on the verge of tears<br />

just because nothing ever feels like it did before<br />

so now i understand if you're bitter<br />

frankly sometimes i do feel the same<br />

it's amazing how in your own homes how the comfort and the pain<br />

well they just grow<br />

this is the field where i realized i loved you<br />

and they just grow<br />

this is the diner where we learned that people die before their time sometimes<br />

the impermanence of it all<br />

don't you let it make you feel too very small<br />

<br />

we saw new constellations with each observation<br />

the night sky grows bigger it seems<br />

but under our ceilings is much more revealing<br />

you'll find what we found in our dreams<br />

and i dreamt that all my old friends got together again<br />

and potluck is something somewhere that we've never been<br />

and we settle and it's so strange<br />

the way that people in situations change<br />

you got caught up in some crazy current<br />

now it seems as though we speak a completely different language<br />

but you'll always be as beautiful as the moment that we met<br />

<br />

and so i tried to write a song for my father<br />

san francisco bus ride that take way too long<br />

he said "you're coming back home boy,<br />

don't feel so alone<br />

love yourself and you'll do no wrong."<br />

but the interstate and life go on and on<br />

and on and on and on and on<br />

<br />

and i wrote my dad a nice blackbox recording<br />

just to hear what people say<br />

when they realize what's coming<br />

about a second or so away<br />

he said, "it starts with 'oh shit' and it ends with 'im sorry'"<br />

and it plays in his head all the time<br />

and i'm not oh and it's so crazy<br />

the ways we all sabotage our very own peace of mind

<br />
