Karate - First Release lyrics

I knew a love That could scare all the wings off the doves Outside my window as they'd stretch out their lungs. From rooftop to rooftop it would come With new weather as the blank dormers stared At each other in the thick Autumn air Was that Allston in late 89 Or some other place, some other time? Anyway It doesn't change what I'm trying to say It's just that something seems to be missing these days Come's still around but the band doesn't play Gone is gone from Discovery piles Chinatown seems like 3 more miles And I can hardly discern between styles Or kids' twisted looks, and genuine smiles Now, when I'm alone I want to feel like one kid getting stoned Only to keep things a little more clear Just to be able to hold on to a simple idea And when I'm with you I want to notice everything as we do to catch every bit bit of blur, squint chill, and red From sand dunes, San Soliel, and sunsets You know that all was both heaven and Hell for me Smashed more than one gla** gesture of jealousy Remember, three to two rooms, girlfriends made it more and you always left my singles on the bedroom floor The bedroom floor Now I've got some friends They've been hanging around since God knows when They still like to tell me each and every time I mouth off or get out of line But these days I know to watch what I say Although I still do things my own way I still spin the same sounds for these unsatisfied ears because there's always something new, something new to hear You know that all was both Heaven and Hell for me Smashed more than one gla** gesture of jealousy Remember, three to two rooms, girlfriends made it more and you always left my singles on the bedroom floor I should not have left that sh** go for so cheap I wish I still had that first release I was just trying to pay some rent, to keep on my feet I guess there are some things I should take from back then, and some things I could leave Some things I could leave Now, when I'm alone I want to feel like one kid getting stoned Only to keep things a little more clear Just to be able to hold on to a simple idea And when I'm with you I want to notice everything as we do to catch every bit bit of blur, squint chill, and red From sand dunes, San Soliel, and sunsets You know that all was both Heaven and Hell for me Smashed more than one gla** gesture of jealousy Remember, three to two rooms, girlfriends made it more and you always left my singles on the bedroom floor I should not have left that sh** go for so cheap I wish I still had that first release I was just trying to pay some rent, to keep on my feet I guess there are some things I should take from back then, and some things I could leave Some things I could leave Some things I could leave Some things I could leave
