Dan Lyrics
[00:11.39] Everybody's asleep, let's talk about him
[00:16.47] Let's talk about high school, talk about death
[00:22.24] Talk about the long ride home from the grave
[00:28.16] How we were too ****** up on Thum's birthday
[00:33.96] Seasonal bugs in a canvas tent
[00:39.05] Seasonal friendships I can see the road end
[00:44.40] You're appealing to the parts that you know I hold dear
[00:50.16] You've been the best five minutes of a **** whole year
[00:54.61] And I'm so glad we're here
[00:57.77] 'Cause I'm with my best friend Dan now
[00:59.83] Camping on the county line
[01:02.29] Hand around a Miller Lite
[01:04.22] Waiting for the sun to rise
[01:06.74] Couple of hometown heroes
[01:08.93] Fighting over politics
[01:11.42] Sitting and remembering
[01:13.57] Young men from different sides
[01:15.76] And we're so alone
[01:17.95] Most of the time
[01:20.21] Most of the time, we don't have anyone
[01:24.77] Where do we go, when we die
[01:29.33] I wouldn't mind right here
[01:31.79] I wouldn't mind at all
[01:43.93] Through the dying light of a flashlight lens
[01:49.22] You tried to tell me how unfair it is
[01:54.58] That I have what I have and you got what you got
[02:00.50] Said I'd give it all back if I could, I cannot
[02:06.61] Loon calls pierce through the violent sky
[02:11.02] Think I stood right here back when Carlo died
[02:17.33] Said I hated the way i made it all about me
[02:22.93] And every day from back then is like a bad old dream
[02:27.81] And I can't fall asleep
[02:30.60] But I'm with my best friend Dan now
[02:33.06] Camping on the county line
[02:35.36] Hand around a Miller Lite
[02:37.45] Waiting for the sun to rise
[02:39.71] Couple of hometown heroes
[02:41.98] Fighting over politics
[02:44.22] Sitting and remembering
[02:46.32] Young men from different sides
[02:48.54] And we're so alone
[02:50.94] Most of the time
[02:52.81] Most of the time, we don't have anyone
[02:57.85] Where do we go, when we die
[03:02.18] I wouldn't mind right here
[03:04.04] I wouldn't mind at all
[03:05.46] See the wasps
[03:07.26] Hit the water
[03:09.69] And drown
[03:14.03] See the lightning
[03:16.36] Light the world
[03:18.67] And land on Orange County ground
[03:23.05] Flip a rock
[03:25.07] See the bugs
[03:27.50] Sleepin' sound
[03:32.28] Hey, that's us
[03:34.44] You and I
[03:36.61] Will be found
[03:42.57] We ain't far from my house
[03:45.26] I'm with my best friend Dan now
[03:47.32] Camping on the county line
[03:49.61] Hand around a Miller Lite
[03:52.05] Waiting for the sun to rise
[03:54.11] Couple of hometown heroes
[03:56.67] Fighting over politics
[03:58.52] Sitting and remembering
[04:00.77] Young men from different sides
[04:03.28] And we're so alone
[04:05.59] Most of the time
[04:07.88] Most of the time, we don't have anyone
[04:12.31] Where do we go, when we die
[04:16.84] I wouldn't mind right here
[04:18.92] No, I wouldn't mind at all
[04:23.72] I wouldn't mind
[04:25.68] I wouldn't mind right here, No I wouldn't mind at all
[04:32.51] I wouldn't mind at all
[04:38.35] Everybody's asleep, let's talk about it
[04:43.55] Let's talk about high school and talk about death
[04:49.05] Before the moment tries to disappear
[04:54.85] Don't the sky look pretty up here?
[04:57.98]
