Late Nights in Horto, 2012 Lyrics

We lived by the highway

We climbed down the fire escape

To the lake

Howled through the alleys

You had an eye for the fire in my eyes

Down at the bar

It's a cold, lonely hour

Laughing like dogs

With my old friend

'cause all of my money

Was stupidly spent

On girls that I won't sleep with

Anyhow

I live by the ocean

A fate I'm not sure you thought I would take

I heard you're a father now

And I'll have a wife

If I get out alive

Out past the car

Insignificant flowers

Moaning in delicate alto

All of my panic was poison to you

Asleep up stairs I was too drunk to climb

I dearly miss those

Late nights in Horto, yeah

Sifting through sadness

Under the gold street lights

Kicked out of the bar

At some petrified hour

Running through wrought iron shadows

All of the country was perfect back then

Before all our secrets caught up to us
