Skinny Atlas - Best Man Speech lyrics

[Intro] Me and my brother... Me and my brother... Me and my brother... [Verse 1] Looking back at us, they'll be clarity Green as our grandparents trees, in our land of fantasy There in pine bush Shoot through the acres with our lanterns leaking kerosene Movers and shakers, we had shakers and tambourines Sold so much the holes in our clothes closed up When you hear this in twenty years don't choke up Our old apartment walls closing shut We felt so grown up, the night that our folks broke up I'll jog our memories in marathons We fought over the bed when we went to live at grandmas You discovered ska, punk rock, skateparks and forgotten woods I discovered how to sell my comic books I can still picture you staying up on the red cushion couch with our guardian dog baron watching over us And then us breaking down a few years later when we heard he was finally gone for good RIP Dog [Chorus] On the days I feel my worst, I see where everything is headed I daydream about the day that you have your dream wedding I'll be your best man, the best man you have that's living I'll give the best best mans speech a best man has ever given On the days I feel my worst, I see where everything is headed I daydream about the day that you have your dream wedding I'll be your best man, the best man you have that's living I'll give the best best mans speech a best man has ever given [Verse 2] I was four when Tommy was born and mom sang him sweet songs in that hospital ward We never understood how you memorized the dinosaurs or what you loved paleontology for Now I'm digging up our bones and I'm sorry for that Cause all the artifacts of our home are already pa**ed If you get that Lebanese tattoo, I'll be there until the bloods dry cause we have cedar trees holding up our bloodline And there were times you went missing Remember all the road blocks you faces and all the road blocks you shifted? We would jam all night with Timmy on the ba**, Wellie on the bongo drums and a finger-picking lick by James I discovered music in those basements with our friends And music made me who I am Yeah I discovered music in those basements with our friends Ten years later, here I am, chasing it again Roll with the punches [Chorus] On the days I feel my worst, I see where everything is headed I daydream about the day that you have your dream wedding I'll be your best man, the best man you have that's living I'll give the best best mans speech a best man has ever given On the days I feel my worst, I see where everything is headed I daydream about the day that you have your dream wedding I'll be your best man, the best man you have that's living I'll give the best best mans speech a best man has ever given [Outro] This is my best man speech Me and my brother... Me and my brother... This is my best man speech This is my best man speech Me and my brother... I'll be the best damn best man a best mans ever been This is my best man speech This is my best man speech This is my best man speech This is my best man speech This is my best man speech This is my best man speech
