The Growlers, Julian Casablancas - Too Many Times lyrics
[The Growlers, Julian Casablancas - Too Many Times lyrics]
Gray is the color of my walls
And the sound of the bars they claim
Gray is my understudied memories
And the taste of the waters we drink
You don't care right now, but you will
When you open your eyes
See gray ceilings over memories
Without the sun to shine onto you
Little brother, please live for me
Under the unfenced moon
Little brother, please don't follow me down
Into the cold gray
Too many times I was a fool wanted respect
Trying to play cool too many times
That I threw away for good too many times
I'll never have again
Put a man inside a fortress
I’m free, with no queen
With no ability to dream, no dreams
And I'm no conformist
With no verse and no choice
Or let his dreams become a void and a voice
You don’t care right now but you’ll show it
When it’s too late for you to
Go back on your will
Little brother, please live for me
Under the unfenced moon
Little brother, please don't follow me down
Into the cold gray
Too many times I was a fool wanted respect
Trying to play cool too many times
That I threw away for good too many times
I'll never get again
And the sound of the bars they claim
Gray is my understudied memories
And the taste of the waters we drink
You don't care right now, but you will
When you open your eyes
See gray ceilings over memories
Without the sun to shine onto you
Little brother, please live for me
Under the unfenced moon
Little brother, please don't follow me down
Into the cold gray
Too many times I was a fool wanted respect
Trying to play cool too many times
That I threw away for good too many times
I'll never have again
Put a man inside a fortress
I’m free, with no queen
With no ability to dream, no dreams
And I'm no conformist
With no verse and no choice
Or let his dreams become a void and a voice
You don’t care right now but you’ll show it
When it’s too late for you to
Go back on your will
Little brother, please live for me
Under the unfenced moon
Little brother, please don't follow me down
Into the cold gray
Too many times I was a fool wanted respect
Trying to play cool too many times
That I threw away for good too many times
I'll never get again
