Trophy Scars - Every City, Vacant lyrics

When the family woke up next morning They packed and left our sad house We laughed for hours until we went silent and we knew what we did We were happy just for an instant We felt like we were kids And in the moment just for an instant We fell in love once again Do you remember the billboards in cities where we used to live? The empty promise that God wants to save us as long as God can forgive I wonder if God wrote a book about us, could he actually forgive? I wonder if we wrote a book about us what we'd actually forget but really, how I wonder... How it used to fell in our younger bodies In our fancy cars, marbled hotel lobbies On a foreign beach on our wedding day In satin sheets in our king sized bed How miss your skin, I miss your lips Your pretty hair and your curvy hips The saddest songs, the burning sun Forget one day and then it's gone Do you remember the cars in our neighborhood? And the sidewalks in chalk? All the children and all of their families when they closed down the block They'd shoot fireworks into the night sky We'd toast with champagne We were real once without any vanities, I want to be there again but really, I want to be there... In the Whistler Mountains in the powdered snow In a club in Paris... Drinking wine with our best friends on the Big Sur cliffs laughing in the wind Swimming pools in the Hollywood Hills painting moments from your favorite films Every night and every breath, the beads of sweat above your breasts How it used to feel in our younger bodies In our fancy clothes in the Plaza lobby St. Maarten Beach on our wedding day In the Vatican in our king sized bed I want to be there
