Stayaway Stars

The Lucksmiths · Naturaliste [2003]

Yeah, you're upset

So am I, so am I

I sometimes forget just how seldom you cry

And thus how much I hate it when you do



Yeah, you're a mess, more or less

So am I

I sometimes forget there are stars in the sky

- So nonchalant, though thoroughly thought through



Say you're OK

And I'll say "so am I"

And we'll call it a day

So goodnight, so goodbye

It's dark enough to disappear into



What sorry sights we sometimes are

These sameshit nights under stayaway stars

These sameshit nights in the saddest bars

The city lights and the stayaway stars
