Manchester Orchestra Album

I am the only one that thinks I'm going crazy
and I don't know what to do
and I am the only son of a pastor I know
who does the things I do
but if it was you
I don't think that it would matter
and if it was true
then I just wouldn't matter

I was amazed at the color and shapes you do
a paper part for two
I am the only son of a bastard I know
that knows the bastard too
because it was you
I called it a different story
but if I was you
I'd make this a simpler story

I bet you did what you did
when you did it
to do it again
by the time you were done with it
I bet you did what you did
when you did
just to tell every friend that you have
that the Lord did it

I finally knew that I simply couldn't matter
you finally knew that you simply couldn't matter
I guess it's true you never knew
the passive power of the truth
would let me lose
if I could write another phrase
we might be better off this way
but there's no use

Shake it out, shake it out
God, I need another round, another round, another round,
another I could feel it now.
I felt the lord in my father's house.
Well, I could see, I could see
standing we were seventeen make it clean
Are you the living ghost of what i need?
are you giving me the best of me.
we, will see.

cuz I'm done being done with the funerals at least for now
are you tired of being alone, are you tired of being alone?

Shake it out, shake it out.
Tie it up another round another
wasn't really what i wanted so we brought it out.
over the shore to my neighbors house.
I could see i could see
god i never should have seen, so complete
I am the living ghost of what you need
I am everything eternally, god just speak.

cuz I'm done being done with the funerals at least for now
are you tired of being alone, are you tired of being alone?

just be clean

oh god, you gotta shake it out, shake it out.
you gotta take it out, take it down
i gotta jump around, i needed that more then i ever have.
oh god you gotta shake it out, shake it out.
you gotta break it down, break it out
you gotta jump around, i feel it now more then i ever have.

I felt the world begin
to peel off all my skin
and i felt the weight within
reveal the bigger mess
that you can't fix

I felt I felt good
repeat into my home
don't fight don't ever go
I swear you'll never know
you'll never know

oh god you gotta shake it out, shake it out.
you gotta break it down, break it out

Dirt in the ground is what I need
I got another one to tell you
and another one to make you believe
pity in the grass tried to be
the one you needed when I told you
that you wanted something bigger than me

I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay
I said that I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay

'cause you are not alive
when I need you
I need it quickly
in case you never know

I can't play where I'm not supposed to anyway

dirt in the ground is what I see
I need another reason why
I need another reason, tell me to breathe
the dirtier the sound, the best I breathe
I tried to do it all for you
it didn't do anything for me

'cause I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay
I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay

and you and I will find
that when I need you
I need it quickly
in fact, you'll never know

I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay
I said that I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay.

Finally I felt the calming breeze
Stepping out to watch the finale scene
After all its you, my pride, and me
I can't speak whatever I can speak
You see
Now I found the ways to meet the means
Faker faced to make the kingdom clean
After all its me and the king and the the beast
Whatever, whatever I can't speak
I sing
How can I explain my wounded feet?
We cut them off in second market scenes
They cut me off before I start to see
But I can cry as long as long as money is seen
It seems
me, see, me, me
Sound on the dead neck or a habit
So I dig it up and burry it
Ground what a broke head
I think i'm dying
I need another one to incubate the sound
What broke head
What a habit
I need another and another one
The ground
What a dead head
I think i'm dying
I think i'm dying for another one
The sound what a broke neck
What a lion
I need another and another one
The sound what cheap trick
What a habit, what a habit when I need it yeah
The sound what a dead neck
What a lion
I need another and another one
The sound
What a cheap trick
What a habit
I think i'm dying for the sound
What dead neck
What a habit
I think i'll dig it up and burry it
Ground what a broke head
I think i'm dying, I think i'm dying

I felt a black man in my teeth, what a way
Jesus is coming, he acts my age, and he always looks the same
I said a good seed was on your break wasn't a mistake anyway
Well Jesus is coming better act our age
And clean everything
And make a seem

Like you never really needed it anyway,
Yep you never really needed it anyways, okay, okay

John spoke a theory straight in to my brain
God damn did you mean to do that to me
Well Jesus don't come round
Unless we pray each day for 500 days

I don't know what you want anymore
No, I don't know what you want anymore
So we can see

That you never really needed it anyway
No you never really needed it anyway
So we can see

That the bottom going to bury us anyway
So I am doing what I gotta to stay awake
Yeah I am doing what I gotta to stay awake, okay

What happens when I don't know what happens
What happens when I don't know what happens

Just stop and go and stop and go till you can't go run anymore
Just stop and go and stop and go till you can't go

Make it seem
Like we never really needed it anyway
Yeah we never really needed it anyway

So we can see
That the bottom gonna bury us anyway
Yeah your doing you gotta to stay awake
Yeah I am doing what I gotta to stay awake

Several Woman's magazines
Stacked up on top of a picture of me
When I tried to call
No one answered

It's not even that I'm all angry
Just kind of confused why you do this thing
You said, there's an understanding

I offer you a small dog in the kitchen
I just wanted you to feel at home

And that's why I'm fine
I am fine, I am fine, I am fine
I just need 100 dollars
And I am fine, I am fine, I am completely fine
I just need 100 dollars
From you
And you and you
And you and you

I could feel a hot one taking me down
For a moment, I could feel the force
Fainted to the point of tears
And you were holding on to make a point
What's the point?

I'm but a clean man, stable and alone man
Make it so I won't have to try
The faces always stay the same
So I face the fact that I'm just fine
I said that I'm just fine

I remember, head down,
After you had found out
Manna is a hell of a drug
And I need a little more, I think
Because enough is never quite enough
What's enough?

I took it like a grown man crying on the pavement
Hoping you would show your face
But I haven't heard a thing you've said
In at least a couple hundred days
What'd you say?

I was in the front seat, shaking it out
And I was asking if you felt alright
I never want to hear the truth
I want to hear your voice, it sounded fine
My voice, it sounded fine

I could feel my heartbeat taking me down
And for the moment, I would sleep alright
I'm dealing with a selfish fear
To keep me up another restless night
Another restless night

The blood was dry, it was sober
The feeling of audible cracks
And I could tell it was over
From the curtains that hung from your neck

And I realized that then you were perfect
And my teeth ripping out of my head
And it looked like a painting I once knew
Back when my thoughts weren't entirely intact

To pray for what I thought were angels
Ended up being ambulances
And the Lord showed me dreams of my daughter
She was crying inside your stomach

And I felt love again

My friend Marcus, he sleeps in my basement
And his father touched more than spirit
Now he can hardly sleep, sleep

My friend Marcus, he's got such an ego
I beg him oh daily to let go
Find your father and find your meaning
Please

I don't give a good shit if your lonesome
I think that you should go home son
Find your father and meaning

Now I can see
You mean everything to nothing
Now I believe
You mean everything

Now I can see
You mean everything to nothing
Now I believe
You mean everything

My friend Marcus, he works on a train set
And I still can't move off my broke track
He's helping me find my meaning
Eventually and hopefully we'll see

And now I believe
I mean everything to nothing
Now I believe
I mean everything

Its funny how many don't know
How many don't have a home
It's funny how many don't know
How many don't have homes
oooooh

I was alone
So I set a fire and I wasted it all on you
You were a sea I cannot remember
And I knew it'd be over soon
If I was a tree I know you couldn't take it
On a Sunday afternoon
And we were a bridge on top of bodied water
With something left inside you

What is the price to be a bargain beggar
So lonely but always free
What did you mean when you said it's destructive
And you sank yourself right into me
I know you think you know
But you probably don't
And I know you think you know
But you probably don't know

Do you think that you would actually do it
Do you think that you would actually do it

And you slept the entire drive home
It was you my sister and I
And you slept the entire drive home
It was you my sister and I

Do you think that you would actually do it
Do you think that you would actually do it

Do you think that you would actually do it
Do you think that you would actually do it

Definitely not the things that i'm seeing
Did I think I see so instantly?
I found a note in my grandfather's coat
When I read it out loud I got cold
It said I'm not complaining
Yeah I was just saying
I'm a man, I'm a lost one you see
Come down with me to a place we'll get clean and we'll meet with them eventually
You mean everything
I don't know much
But a crutch is a crutch
If it's holding you from moving on
I don't know what to do
Not anymore, not anymore
I don't know what to do
Not anymore, not anymore
And you, well you mean everything
You mean everything to nothing
You mean everything to nobody, me
You mean everything to nothing
You mean everything to nobody but me

I will fight the spirit
With a sword in my side
She found a way out
Crack my rib
Wait to die
I think I know you best when I sleep
I think I know everything

Me and my brothers
We have tongues sharp as knives
I found a way out
Make a noise, close your eyes
I think I talk to you best when I sing
I sing about almost everything

Oh god I need it
So let me see again
Take me to the river
And let me see again
Oh my god
Let me see again
Oh my god
Let me see again
Let me see again

Grace taught her daughter
Daily on
God how I feel it
Fed her pride to your feet
I'm gonna leave you the first chance I get [4x]

Oh god I need it
I was wrong again
Take me to the river
And make me clean again
Oh my god
Make me clean again
And oh my god
Let me see again
