Yeah, people stop and stare through stale smoke air The fireworks blare, she asks me So then I came clean and k**ed the dream Finale seen so quickly The fake smiles made it seem sadder Perceptions all torn and tattered And now Find myself walking by Tabor park one spring night It's where our future died and these same Portland lights Will help me find my way past wet, blurred street signs Some lawn at day I'll lay and pa** out clutching cheap red wine I think I spent the greater part of tonight just waiting for you On the chance that I'd meet up with the girl I never outgrew Yeah, people stop and stare through stale smoke air The fireworks blare, she asks me
So then I came clean and k**ed the dream Finale seen so quickly The fake smiles made it seem sadder Perceptions get torn and tattered So now Find myself walking by Tabor park one spring night It's where our future died and these same Portland lights Will help me find my way past wet, blurred street signs Some lawn at day I'll lay and pa** out clutching cheap red wine But now with sh** to show, it's kinda hard to let you know Kick this dust off my clothes, spit the dust out of my mouth, make my way downtown Waking up to city sounds, I'll take one last look around And if the streets are empty then I'll let the raindrops wipe me clean of you
