lyrics

I see you
you're jumping out the van
and I think
now what could I have been?
on the corner of Chapel Street and York
the fire burns beside the door
found a way
to hide behind a screen
underneath in cowboy boots and sheen
and your shiny melodies so clear
I hear you at the movie theatre.

walls are so tall,
they seem to grow taller,
and I feel so small
why even bother?

the Dirty Projectors are the shit
of which I wish I was capable
oh, to think like that
no, I will never know.
I squint my ears to listen for van Gogh.
and we wore black sheep costumes just the same.
self-obsessed, I was the one to change his name.
tried so hard to give myself a break
I guess I'm proud to say I knew you in the day.

walls are so tall,
they seem to grow taller,
and I feel so small
I can't be bothered.

I'm OK with everything I've done.
I'm OK with everything I've done.
I want to say I'm OK with what I've done.
I'm OK with everything I've done.

walls are so tall.
