Dead Languages Lyrics

The city stands on its tip toes
Melissa said we're not dead yet
we're in a good place now
we're in the sweet spot now
there's hope instead

say what you need
i'll make the table again
say what you need
and i'll pretend to know
take what you need
because there's no finding shelter

so i'll talk to you like strangers talk
on your favorite tv shows
you're an extinct animal
you're covered in dead languages that i know

summer is dead, long live the summer
we made our way back home
that was our last number
call me at home
i'll sing you "thirteen" again
i'm digging a hole, i'll put your shoebox in there
with the pictures of us in septembers twilight

don't talk to me like strangers talk
on your favorite tv show
you're an extinct animal
you're covered in dead languages
that i know
