lyrics

Do they still remember to leave the lights on
Do they still remember?
When hope was a lighthouse high upon the hill
And Now the towns gone dark everyone is standing still
When the tide goes out, and a wreck begins to show
Their faith slips away, leaving room for addictions to grow
Do they still remember to leave the lights on
Do they still remember to leave the lights on
Highlighting shrines and these murals on the walls
Of sombre widows weeping over sleeping souls
They’re haunted by shadows and familiar silhouettes
Enslaved by the fear that one day soon they’ll all forget
They’d burn the woods, burn the town, burn some bridges just to guide them
home
They’d burn the woods, burn the town, burn some bridges just to guide them
home
They’d burn the woods, burn the town, burn some bridges just to guide them
home
Home
But once the choirs have sung and the poets have left
Well all who remain as still broken and bereft
With a murderous rage with no one to blame
The years will pass and every day will always end the same
They still remember to leave the lights on
They’ll still remember to leave the lights on

An uplifting and powerful song with an even more powerful message behind it. Loove the shoegaze/old emo elements on this and the gorgeous chords combined with the raw production. ozymandiasbootis
