My dreams are not any stranger Than how I make sense of things by day I seem to remember all of you in oddly human ways Let me pretend Oh, I see you do not offer me Do not offer me I know what sounds good in my ears He knows what his idols told him I nurture my delicate baby We nurture our practices But do some things that stunt our memories Let me make roots Wonder if my remedies live up And I miss your culture It’s about letting go to me I miss the days when I thought you’d love me endlessly Now I'm content 'cause it’s all just as potent And we’ve all admired the awfulness The boys show me the bridges Streets of secrets, tell me local history Nod my head to show them all the interest But they don’t ever ask me I can pretend while I'm able It lives and breathes The same themes live and breathe But I'm still just as free And I miss your culture It’s about letting go to me I miss the days when I thought you’d love me endlessly Now I'm content 'cause it’s all just as potent And we’ve all admired the awfulness
