Bright Eyes - One and Done lyrics
[Bright Eyes - One and Done lyrics]
I was dreaming of you you're in my dreams
My old pal looks shaky
With a cigarette in his hand
Salt and pepper sprinkled on his
Face and on his head
Looks like he might start crying
Is it something that I said?
Let’s take a walk around the block
This fleeting feeling's infinite
Around here we’ve been wondering what
Tomorrow’s going to sing
On the final field recording
From the loud Anthropocene
I’ve seen the sparkle of the diamonds
On the watch of the emcee
It’s not keeping time, just shining
It’s not the first time you
Said "one and done"
And oh my god, and oh my god
Stood in your prom dress all covered in blood
What you sacrificed will never be enough
This whole town looks empty
But we knew it wouldn’t last
Behind bulletproof windows they’re still
Wiring the cash
Whatever they could scrape up
Whatever that they had
There’s a lot of mouths to
Feed through this famine
This room seems even smaller now
Than I remember it
Hung mirrors on the walls and the ceiling
There’s no disguising it
There’s no denying it
This little box fit's everything there is
It’s not the first dance you
Said "one and done"
And oh my god, baby, oh my god
Came to the wedding, you were looking rough
Watch the masochists all celebrating love
Come up! Come up!
My old pal looks shaky
With a cigarette in his hand
Salt and pepper sprinkled on his
Face and on his head
Looks like he might start crying
Is it something that I said?
Let’s take a walk around the block
This fleeting feeling's infinite
Around here we’ve been wondering what
Tomorrow’s going to sing
On the final field recording
From the loud Anthropocene
I’ve seen the sparkle of the diamonds
On the watch of the emcee
It’s not keeping time, just shining
It’s not the first time you
Said "one and done"
And oh my god, and oh my god
Stood in your prom dress all covered in blood
What you sacrificed will never be enough
This whole town looks empty
But we knew it wouldn’t last
Behind bulletproof windows they’re still
Wiring the cash
Whatever they could scrape up
Whatever that they had
There’s a lot of mouths to
Feed through this famine
This room seems even smaller now
Than I remember it
Hung mirrors on the walls and the ceiling
There’s no disguising it
There’s no denying it
This little box fit's everything there is
It’s not the first dance you
Said "one and done"
And oh my god, baby, oh my god
Came to the wedding, you were looking rough
Watch the masochists all celebrating love
Come up! Come up!
