Fell down the stairwell; had tripped on my feet.
My heart got untied and laced with ennui.
Dear Mr. Shoemaker, make me some cleats.
Oh, how it’d be lovely to step on my dreams.
I see, I see it was too true to believe;
You were just lying next to me.
Heal it all and by the hour forget
See it all and say “Who? Who?”
Leave it all and by the hour forget
Hear it all and say “Who? Who?”
Whatcha sayin’, whatcha sayin’ that I can’t hold on.
(Who would I love here if I hadn’t known?)
Whatcha sayin’, whatcha sayin’ that I can’t move on.
(Who would I love here if I hadn’t known?)
See in the way of the poorest
The lowest are lovely and lonely defined.
See in the way of the future,
The way of this story; The way of the times.
Up is the way that I wanted to see
For, less the good nightmares, I was bereaved.
Dear Mr. Sandman, please give me some sleep.
Oh, how it’d be lovely to have all my dreams.
I see, I see it was too true to believe;
You were just lying next to me.
Pain for love, that’s how it goes. And you’ll say
“Get up, don’t get yourself down” x2
I feel it down my achey bones. And you’ll say
“Get up, don’t get yourself down” x2
See in the way of the poorest
The lowest are lovely and lonely defined.
See in the way of the future,
The way of this story; The way of this story;
The way of the, way of the, way of the
times.
See in the way of the poorest
The lowest are lovely and lonely defined.
See in the way of the future,
The way of this story; The future’s divine.

I found this album after DSiSM was used in Grimace shake tiktoks of all things. What a funny way to find the best Tally Hall album, even if they don't call themselves Tally Hall here. Bryant Taylor
A beautiful mix of rock and folk with thoughtful, story-like lyrics and beautiful harmonies... one of my favorite all time albums. So hard to pick between Curses and the Garden. anodyneavian
