Lyrics San Francisco Serenade - Bad Astronaut

San Francisco Serenade

We run like it kills us to stay
If judged I’d be nothing till the day that I stopped you
As trite as these things might seem to anyone else
I wrote them down to document
My worth is you
My worth is you
Excessive city, we can’t afford to stay
But home to the sane, somehow safe now
We can’t afford to leave
Transformation and tragedy leads conclusion
Our world marches to drums of death
You’re my rest.
The stories will sleep
Say goodnight to them
You know it’s ending
Slow my mind
Silence untruth
Take my broken hands
Watch the world renew
The stories read of hospitals and alcohol and empty households
The bars were steeped in honesty while your retreat was east of me
The buildings fell on everything and everyone was incoherent
Our time is now.
We’re leaving
You’re my death
I’m your disease
Together we will bleed
Devotedly concede
La la la la
La la la la
Take my broken hand
We’ll watch it all ending
We’ll watch it all ending
