The Alien/The Sunshine/The Grocery - Manchester Orchestra (slowed + reverb) ✟ 

Lyrics: [The Alien] The lights were low enough, you guessed You swapped your conscience with your father's medication Limped from Rome to Lawrenceville And on the way, wrote out a self-made declaration And when you got to Pleasant Hill You forced the traffic to erase your family demons And made a pact with you and God: "If You don't move I swear to You I'm gonna make Ya" Do you need me? Do you need me? Do you need me? Do you need me? When the first officer arrived It happened to be the high school bully of your brother When you finally recognized You felt some guilt that you had even let him touch you Can you hear me? What's your name? You could not speak, just laid amazed at all the damage As the high school's letting out All the kids're saying the same thing that they used to It's an alien It's an alien It's an alien It's an alien The lights were low enough you guessed Hospital food, there's never enough medication The doctor asked about your ears You said your mom said you were made from a revelation But Revelation never scares Your fear came from your drunken dad and a pair of scissors Were you just finally letting go? Or did you mean to take out all those people with you? "Didn't mean to Didn't mean to Didn't mean to Didn't mean to" Oh, I didn't mean to (Take the time to terrify the throne) Oh, I didn't mean to (You'll never let it go) No, I didn't mean to (Take the time to terrify the throne) Oh, I didn't mean to (They'll never let you go) Time is here to take your last amendments and believe them on your own Time is here to take you by the hand and leave you there alone (You won't ever know) Time has come to take the last commandment and to carve it in your stone (You won't ever know) Time has come to take you by the hand and leave you here alone [The Sunshine] I already know that I don't already know You are the sunlight I don't really care if you don't understand You are the moonlight And that's alright, alright with me Oh, that's alright I don't really mind if you don't really mind You are the sunshine You don't have to know if you don't want to know You are the moonlight Oh and that's alright, alright with me Oh that's alright, alright with me Oh that's alright, alright with me Oh that's alright, alright with me Oh that's alright, alright with me Oh that's alright Alright (I'm) alright (I'm) alright (I'm) alright (I'm) alright [The Grocery] "I don't know where I'm going but I'm going anyways" So you leave the apartment, grab the gun under the bed I want to reach above the paradox where nobody can see Want to hold a light to paradigm and strip it to its feet I want to feel the way my father felt, is it easier for me? I want to know if there's a Higher Love oblivious to me So you walk in the grocery and you, you unload several rounds "Don't you dare move a muscle," cardboard cutout ads I want to reach above the paradox where nobody can see Want to hold a light to paradigm and strip it to its feet I want to feel the way your father felt, was it easy for belief? I want to know if there's a Higher Love he saw that I can't see Looking back, it's obvious now, you believe Him or you don't So you load up your pistol and you, you press it to your lips And you squeeze on the trigger, all it does is clicks I want to reach above the para-blind where nobody could see Want to hold a light to paradise and see if I could sleep I want to feel the way our fathers felt when it swept them off their feet I want to know about that Higher Love you saw that can't be seen The only obvious equation, you believe it or you don't And I've been trying to find the right way to get out of here I've been trying to find the right way to get out of here This is the only Way to go This is the only Way
