The New Pornographers - Avalanche Alley lyrics

[The New Pornographers - Avalanche Alley lyrics]

Cover your eyes! Surprise, your fate
It's only an avalanche away, you're safe
It's only a scratch, you're great

Several years after the flood
Your singularity under the gun
So late, so late to the game, so late
We thought it was wise to wait

Sent you blues from the lost world
News from the future
Blues from the lost world
News from the future

Several miles behind the wave
We needed to cross the ocean
We missed the ride
Lord knows we could use a ride

You summon the breath to finally say
"It's only an avalanche away", feels right


And you can stay here tonight
Yeah, you can stay here tonight

Sent you blues from the lost world
News from the future
Blues from the lost world
News from the future

Better angels formed the cottage industry
The testimonials, warning weather
Rules of the house are all graffiti scrawled
Ceremony calls for tar and feathers
Jewels in your crown
Are loud and proudly fake
Ceremony calls for overthrowing

Consigned to the dustbins
Of bloodlines turned away
Defined by the daylight
Which we found in Avalanche Alley
Controlled demolitions
Of the times, far away
In line for the festival that
We call Avalanche Alley

Blues from the lost world
News from the future
Blues from the lost world
News from the future
