about

i wrote this song with my friend Edan from the band West Dakota (westdakota.us) He's a great songwriter. He and i decided to collaborate after joking how we both actually are just trying to write really catchy, big, straightforward pop songs, but for some reason our songs always come out strange and just, well, like us.

The lyrics are more serious I guess. The song is about trying to abandon the past, and make a clean break. There's one line that says, "First we burn the maps, then we burn the ships." I'm drawn to the idea lately of moving forward with absolute certainty, and never looking back.

lyrics

I'm awake with you
And your bad dreams
Maybe we could use
A change of scene
I never had a home
But the curves of you hips
First burn the maps
Then we burn the ships
Cause you lose yourself
When you're in between

So Leave it alone
Do what you wanna do
The old days are gone
A new life is calling you
You're lost in a dream
You're floating downstream

Is there something wrong?
Cause I can't tell
Won't you meet me by
The carousel?
Because you can't get ready for the fiery crash
I never fuck with the future and the past is past
What I mean to say
Is all is well

You'll open your heart
With no reservations
We're the eternals
The pale generation
They'll call it a crime
But they don't know time

If I'm the one to surrender
I'd never give you away
Our hearts will glow just like embers
And for once
I'll know just
What to say
What to say
What to say

So Leave it alone
Do what you wanna do
The old days are gone
A new life is calling you
You're lost in a dream
You're floating downstream

Open your heart
With no reservations
We're the eternals
The pale generation
They'll call it a crime
But they don't know time
