String Theory Lyrics

Someone's trying to impress me

With their Tanqueray philosophy

They told me we're connected

Then they threw up off the porch

And someone's blush and tumble roommate

Doing kind interrogations

Are you happy?

Are you doing alright?

The frontman's silver tongue

Disagreeing with the limerick he's just done

It doesn't rhyme, it doesn't mean a thing

But it feels so nice to sing

Hang up the string lights

Tangled and broken

Cause we're all defective and glitchy and desperately bright

No way to ward off

The end of the empire

No way to get back what we lost, even if we could

But if parties could still save us

This one would

Come the morning, the tequila

Came collecting on repayment

I woke to poison skull emojis from my fortress on the floor

So I walked to Ralph's for crackers

And all the way I thought about the coral reefs, the president, the friends I hadn't called

And when I got back, you gave your hangover report

You said

I won't keep every promise I make

But I'm gonna own my mistakes

Last night your bathroom wasn't making much sense to me

I might owe you an apology

Haha, sorry

Hang up the string lights

Tied to each other

They're all anxious, but acting the opposite just for a night

No way to ward off

The end of the empire

And all of our favorite songs

I'm not even sure they're good

But if music could still save us

Here it would

We all want an easy slogan

Something good for a tattoo

There's no single sentence version of the truth

Though we keep searching

At the bottom of our drinks

We grip our solo cups like handlebars

In basement shows to sink

Hang up the string lights

Tangled and broken

Cause we're all defective and glitchy and desperately bright

No way to ward off

The end of the empire

No way to get back what we lost, even if we could

And if no one comes to save us

This is our capsize parade

Big party on the mess we made

Though nothing's alright

We've got lights and a good looking stage

This is our capsize parade

Big party on the mess we made

Though nothing's alright

We've got lights and a good looking stage
