Duration: 4:54
Description:
This is the fourteenth and final song on La Dispute's new album "Wildlife".Lyrics:What will I find?Some sacred thing to help me handle the tragedy?Or did I once--Did I have it and lose it?No one should ever have to walk through the fire alone.No one should ever have to brave that storm. No,Everybody needs someone or something.And when I sing, don't I sing your name outRight at the same time that I sing my own?Some days I swear I can feel you splitting the light through the window frame.The shapes it makes are always warmer, always brighter than the rest of what comes through.Some days I swear I can hear you sing to me or whisper my name in the slightest way.It's like the warmest light now laid across my bedroom floor is somehow actually you andNot just sunlight.I have the memory climb down the balcony.I put a flower on the back of its dress.It's probably best to forget it.It's probably best to let go.I paint it the shade of where the skin and the lip meet,Only a moment after breaking the kiss. AndI blur out everything else.That's how I choose to remember it.Some nights are a lot like the days, I lay awake too late, I watch the shadows castedTrace your shape. Those silver slivers on the wall then on the bedsheets.I hear your song in the trees. I finally fall into rest.Often later when I'm sleeping you show up in my dreams.Just doing simple things, like buying groceries.And when I wake up I could swear you must've just left meLike you got up to make breakfast or maybe just to get dressed.But the truth is, you were never there. You won't ever be.Sometimes I think I'm not either so what do I doWhen every day still seems to start and end with you?And you won't ever know, you won't ever see,How much your ghost since then has been defining me.I leave the memory up atop the balcony.I tear this flower from the back of the dress.It's best this time, I bet, to just forget and let go.Paint it the shade of where the lip bleeds and blur it out.I blur out everything else, just blur out everything else.And let go, and let go, and let go.Everybody has to let go somedayEverybody has to let go.I wonder when I will. I wonder.But if I still hear you singing in every city I meetAfter I blur it all out, our every memory, ifYou never fade with the days, your shape still haunting me then,Should I not just sing along?Should I not just sing along?I will sing sweetly hope that the notes change butI do not need it to happen. I'm not resigned to it. AndIf they never do I'll sing your name in every line.Just like I did throughout this. Just like I've always done.In every gun, the empty church, and every tortured son.In all those giving up. In all those giving in.Until I die I will sing our names in unison.Until I die I will sing our names in unison.If you like it, please support this amazing band http://nosleepstore.com/artist/la-disputeShameless self-advertisinghttp://www.youtube.com/user/NoSkidsDaddyhttp://noskidsdaddy.bandcamp.com/http://www.facebook.com/pages/No-Skids-Daddy/156869541033645

Nov 24, 2011 - But the truth is, you were never there. You won't ever be.Sometimes I think I'm not either so what do I doWhen every day still seems to start and end with you?And you won't ever know, you won't ever see,How much your ghost since then has been defining methis helped in my recent realization of how i have little to no effect on someone i think about all the time. sure we have some fun times but none leave an impact for her in the slightest way. the price of having good music, it hurts

Feb 3, 2012 - I thought about the same thing for that line. I really love this girl and she doesnt notice and she never will no matter how much i tell her. its like i speak and nothing comes out to me but to her its always just a meaningless "I love you.".
arsonistrats Says:
Feb 9, 2012 - at some point i started imagining that this song is about a couple who's got separated because one of them is in prison. now the other one comes over there and they both start writing these lyrics on the window between them to communicate. how sad would that be! i still can't figure out though why they wouldn't be talking over the phone :) also it would be hard to write as fast as he sings. well...

MsLostRealist Says:
Apr 14, 2012 - Every album this band creates is mind blowing. I can never understand how they could create such masterpeices.
NinjaSkittlez96 Says:
Apr 15, 2012 - La Dispute saved and continues to save my life. "But the truth is you were never there, you won't ever be. Sometimes I think I'm not either. So what do I do when everyday still seems to start and end with you?" These lyrics make me fall apart with the passion they bring. These lyrics keep me alive because it's like someone gets me. Like I'm not alone. I love you La Dispute!
