LYRICS: 
our children will always hear
romantic tales of distant years.
our guilded age may come and go,
our crooked dreams will always flow.

stick with me,
you're my best friend,
All of my life,
you've always been.

remember, remember
all we fight for.

Feels like we're standing on a cloudy, golden precipice,
with our mistakes all behind us and only heaven in front of us,
& sometimes it feels like we've lost faith in reality,
a generation searching for one fucking story,

But now we're patients killed by medicine,
we're addicted to our suffering,
we're voices in a million searching for something to believe in,

screaming "All that's good is gone, all we used to love is dead,
& now our only heroes are the voices in our heads,"

Heaven - The Walkmen (PARADISE FEARS COVER)

lyrics
something like a crisis
a quarter life gone by,
and I’m still obsessed with purpose, 
just getting wasted, wasting time, 
there’s something like a message
in this October sky,
you held my hand through all the darkness,
picked me when times were hardest, 

so I may be stuck in neutral, wondering where to hedge my bets,
but when that same sky is falling, and nothing else is making sense, 

I’ve got you to believe in,
Yeah I’ve got you to believe in,
I’ve got you to believe in,

some people have their faith,
I don’t what to think,
cause if there’s something guiding us, 
then why am I still drawing blanks?
I still dream of running,
but I can’t fill up my tank,
You grabbed my hand and pulled me up,
you pulled my soul into a cup, until it runneth over
until it runneth over

I’ve got you to believe in,
Yeah I’ve got you to believe in,
when it feels like i’m nothing,
you’re there and god, well at least that’s something,
I’ve got you to believe in,  

I don't believe in politics, I don't pray to celebrities,
Or stand with generations finding faith in TV screens,
And screaming, 
"All that's good is gone, all we used to love is dead,
Now our heroes are the voices in our heads," they're screaming,
"All that's good is gone, all we used to love is dead,
Now our heroes are the voices in our heads,”
"All that's good is gone, all we used to love is dead,
Now our heroes are the voices in our heads,”

4, 3, 2, I don’t know who I am, but I know

 I’ve got you to believe in,
Yeah I’ve got you to believe in,
when it feels like i’m nothing,
you’re there and god, well at least that’s something,
I’ve got you to believe in,   
I’ve got you to believe in,   
I’ve got you to believe in, 

You to Believe In

prod by ace enders.

i met superman with you,
charlie brown and jesus too,
on those nights i couldn’t sleep,
you were always there with me,
when i was young and faint of heart, 
you’d tell me stories in the dark,

& when I felt, I couldn’t fly,
you and peter took me on a ride,
you said, "son don’t be afraid to die,
it was an awfully great adventure,"
so much of who we are, 
is in those stories in the dark,

what we learned when we were young,
sets the table for our lives,
bread we break, it fills our hearts and feeds our loss,
and even though, you're not here anymore,
i hear your voice.

cats in the cradle and the silver spoon,  
used to make me cry, guess I still do,
i didn’t want that for me and you,
i know that we’ll be together soon,
cause when I wonder where you are,
i hear those stories in the dark,

i know someday i'll tell my own,
& then someday when you've moved on, 
i'll tell him, "son don’t be afraid to die,
we had an awfully great adventure,"
now i know right where you are,
you’re in my stories in the dark, 

i see you there, in the corner of my mind,
i hear you there, but you stay a step behind,
even though, you're not here anymore, i hear your voice.

Stories in the Dark - Paradise Fears

prod by cole andre

it's new years now, & you're still away.
i fell in love with your photo frame,
you left a note for me, all it said was
"i'll see you some day."
all these words you left inside of me are scribbled here on pages you'll never read.

it's been two years & i can't forget
the day you left & the day we met.
i know there's some clue you left for me, 
i haven't solved it yet.
all these scenes i've seen of you & me are films inside my head that you'll never see.

there's so many thousand words that i could say to you,
i wanna say to you.
he'll fall asleep tonight & god, he'll pray to you,
he's gonna pray to you.
i'm sure you're out there somewhere & that you've found someone who'll follow through.
i swear that i could follow through.

you're every word in these songs of mine,
the flash of light when i close my eyes.
you're my green light on the lake tonight,
i'll follow ceaselessly.
all these words you left inside of me are scribbled here in songs that you'll never read.

there's so many thousand words that i could say to you,
i wanna say to you.
he'll fall asleep tonight & god, he'll pray to you,
he's gonna pray to you.
i'm sure you're out there somewhere & that you've found someone who'll follow through.
i swear that i could follow through.
