Cellar doors open, all others shut behind
Basement corner stacked so high
Filled with trinkets from my failures
I don't even try to sort out
Every weekend spent, we did our best
It's in the details, every expense
It wasn't perfect but was it worth it in the end
Cellar doors open, all others shut behind
Basement corner stacked so high
Filled with trinkets from my failures
I don't even try to sort out
And I can't explain it, I'm a moth drawn to the light
I'm having a hard time letting the past die
I never thought it'd be this difficult to say goodbye
I can't explain it
A ticking timebomb
Tear down the paneling from the walls
It's so hard to walk away when
I Don't Care Enough to Stay at all

Every morning exactly the same
How do you manage to always keep me up so late
I know a thing or two about
Letting my alarm clock ring
Sunlight across your face
I struggle to stay awake
You bring me back down
Into the sheets I let my body drown
I'm calling in sick
I'm taking you out
Another day spent playing it safe
Enough with the bullshit I'm giving myself a break
I don't even care about tomorrow
Don't let tomorrow scare me
You bring me back down
Into the sheets I let my body drown
I'm calling in sick
I'm taking you out
Escape the circadian plague
Skip coffee, spend my whole lunch break
Planning our permanent vacation
I don't want to wait
I don't want to wait

Remember when we first met
You were showing me more than your teeth
In the parking lot of the donut shop taqueria
So nice to meet you face to face
A first date on mother's day
Closed for the holiday
Hold my breath
Let the feeling kick in
Play my cool
Whip up more reasons to linger in your head
I can see it
I can see it in your eyes tonight
Back to routine now, here's the old me
Same situation but I'm more happy
Come Monday morning I'm not ready
Don't leave this bed, how can I make you stay
How can I make you stay
Here's the old me
Catching you by surprise
We were up all night
'Til the sunrise.

Pedaling faster than hell
Never gone this far before, as far as I can tell
No more broken bottom bracket, we set fire to the shell
Just oil that chain, a brand new crank
And fix her up real well
SVT
All 23 miles there and back
We're leading this pack
We're leading this pack
I don't find no shame
I will not replace
No, I never could, I never could, I never could
No, I never would, I never would, I never would
I think you need a change of pace
A chance to go and leave this place
'Cause after all this is a race
And the last one home is a rotten egg
I don't find no shame
I will not replace
No, I never could, I never could, I never could
No, I never would, I never would, I never would

All these years I've been waiting
You could've been my long lost friend
A few streets over
Same bus when we were ten
But now I've finally found you
Right where you've always been
Had me obsessing every weekend
Asking if you're around, wanna meet by the dead end
'Cause I'm feeling so alive after the other night
What do you mean this'll be the last time
Can I take you on a late night drive
Sitting on the dock, I look you in the eyes
You made moving home feel like it'd be alright
I know you had to leave
You're right where you need to be
'Cause you're just a kid with dreams
Just like me
Cul-de-sac, on our backs
Touching fingers through the grass
Fourth of July revelation, I don't need to keep the past
Lean in just a tad more
I'll kiss you one more time before
We're getting up to dress
Oh I feel it permeate my chest

A brand new home
A new fence to form your cage
Now every time you're dreaming
You don't have to wake
I was stopping by like once every week
You were on a losing streak
Stuck to your bed
Can't stand on your own feet
The floor was too slick
Can't hold your own weight
You were a wreck
I held you as your eyes flickered shut
Died in your sleep, you were curled up
Your favorite pillow as your bed
I leaned in close and kissed your tiny head
It's time to say goodbye for the last time
Now you're in Doggie Heaven
All the kibble you can eat
'Cause as a good boy like you
Deserves his treats

Body in suspense
This isn't how most people get their ears to stretch
They're gonna hang so low
Gonna tie em in a knot and a bow
Touching base, saving face
Feeling nauseous because I just looked at my phone
And saw your name
Touching base, saving face
Touching base, saving face
Always hiding behind fingertips
Grind my nose down to the bone
To quell the sensation
Put myself at ease
Convince myself I can make it
The whole ride home without
Puking all my guts out in the back seat
Always hiding behind fingertips
Feel like dying when I do
Habits I won't break
Can't undo this mistake
What I'm feeling isn't pain
It's worse
Habits I won't break

Triple Fucking C rules. I've never related more sonically and nothing has been more representative of my music tastes than Tourism.

Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long. RIP, Phil

I love mom jeans. It immerses myself in those unforgettable feelings and makes me weep, and I smile as the trumpet starts to play. How wonderful.
