The War On Drugs - Old Skin

I was born in a pyramid
By an old interstate
Been down at the yard
Workin' my whole life
To follow my father's dream
Then watch it fade away
Wrapped in our old tired skin
Peeling away

All the flowers lately
In our window lay in disarray
Shadows are scattered
Like rings of gold
I'm watching the warm lights fade away
Go now
This loving feeling
Just a fading dream

Calling out in the darkest moments of our love
For the rest of my days
Why let it linger?
Come along
We're the same
Let's suffer through the change

Oh my god where do I belong?
Can I make it day to day?
I was all alone at the starting line
When I watched you slip away
Now I'm on the run, baby, and I don't know why
But the fear it gets too much to take
It doesn't matter just how hard you try
When you feel so far away

I'm talking of the old times
And feeling dead this way
Tired of the old lines
Feeling dead this way

When you're lost and your running
But the roads have changed
And the forces surround you
But you've lost control
And you think that nobody's walking by your side
When you're lost in some valley
Running far behind
Think you don't need nobody?

Well there's a price for everything
That tries to pull us all apart
So take control of anything
That tries to kill you from the start
But I ain't sure of nothin' babe
Till I can feel it in my heart
Do I keep hanging on?
