RILO KILEY LYRICS - Paint's Peeling

"Paint's Peeling"



The paint's peeling off the streets again

And i'll drive and close my eyes in michigan

And i feel nothing, not brave

It's a hard day for breathing again

The heat is chasing off all of your friends

And their scattered bodies part to the shore again

And i feel nothing, not sane

It's a hard day for dreaming again



I'm not going back to the assholes that made me

And the perfect display of random acts of hopelessness

I wish i could stay here

But i think we're all ready, i think we're all ready



And i feel nothing, not safe

It's a hard day for dreaming again

Now that you've seen almost all of america

All you can say is, "where is all the water?"

The war has been over for years since you gave up



Last night, where the road had started

And last night, when my hands were choking you

Last night, when the room and your mood was dipping

And last night when the ropes were pulling you in... You said,

"hey, how could you love me this way?"

You said, "hey, i think we're all ready..."

I think we're all ready
