LYRICS
Turn the volume up real high
All of that money look at it fly
And you smoking like a chimney
Shadows crawled across the living room's length
I held onto you with a desperate strength
With everything with everything in me
And I handed you a drink of the lovely little thing
On which our survival depends
People say friends don't destroy one another
What do they know about friends?
Thunderclouds forming cream white moon
Everything's going to be okay soon
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe the next day
Carried you up the stairs that night
All of this could be yours if the price is right
I heard cars headed down to oblivion
Up on the expressway
Your drunken kisses as light as the air
Maybe everything that falls down eventually rises
Our house sinking into disrepair
Ah but look at this showroom filled with fabulous prizes

I'll drop this comment here, so that whenever someone likes it I'll get reminded of this masterpiece.
People say friends don't destroy one another
What do they know about friends
One of my favorite lyrics of all time.
What DO they know?
Only M.G. lyric my Dad knows by heart
ah but look at this showroom
it's filled with fabulous prizes
This song translates surprisingly well to a rollicking alt country feel
maybe everything that falls down eventually rises
Oh wow. John looks good with a goatee.
the combination of love and angst expressed in this song put it on my top ten list.
your drunken kisses as light as the air
maybe everything that falls down eventually rises…
everything will be okay soon
maybe tomorrow
Maybe the next day
This one has gotta have some of the most potent and relatable lyrics to my life right now, stuck sharing an apartment with a former friend who turned out to be an absolute piece of shit, with nothing but contempt, and alcohol the only thing making this situation somewhat bearable. 2 months until the lease is out at least
"everything will be okay soon." maybe in 2 months. :/
curious to know how things turned out
This song made me think about potential energy.Potential energy is usually described like what goes up must come down or whatever, but what about on a galactic scale, where do our atoms end up eventually? Is it in some black hole somewhere, and then repacked into some pre big bang ball of everything? What is our potential energy over a long long time?
Eventually, all those potential energies even out and everything settles into a uniform blank slate, lacking the energy for anything to affect anything else. Everything, even black holes, just burns out in the end. Probably. And over time long enough to be practically meaningless on a human scale
@@curvy4655 a uniform sea of photons, slowly spreading out further and further, cooling towards absolute zero
Carried you up the stairs that night 🖤
❤️
john darnielle you are my absolute favourite - an unknown pinnacle
BUT
my goodness, you do like to do live versions of these perfect acoustic/melancholy songs with a band and completey ruin the feeling of the song
i mean the fans seem to like it ahaha what do i know
This one lost everything
Discontinue the lithium
