Manchester Orchestra - Where Have You Been?

Lyrics:

They call holidays an option for a reason
I heard you're coming back to life just for the fourth
I've been catching all your ghosts for every season
I pray to god you won't come back here anymore

do you pray with him, too?

They should deliver all my blessings
in small brown paper handbags near the porch
I wished I'd known that you were bleeding while I sat
and watched you reading with the lord

I read with him, too

when you look at me
I'll be digesting your legs
cause I can hardly see
what's in front of me these days
and those days, too.

I've got to take what I'm making
and turn it into something
I've got to take what I'm making
and turn it into something
for you
I've got to break what I'm making
and turn it into nothing
I've got to break what I'm making
and turn it into nothing
for you

when you look at me
I'll be digesting your legs
cause I can hardly see
what's in front of me these days
and those days, too.

God, where have you been?
God, where have you been?
God, where have you been?
God, where have you been?

God, oh God, where have you been?
God, my God, my God, where have you been?
God, where have you been?
God, God, where have you been?

@adumbbbbb SSSSOOOOO JEALOUS!!!!

[PunkPop182]

@fluffyfluff87 Must have been awesome!

I wouldn't say that they're big right now - just over a million views on their biggest hit isn't very big. But they have grown a lot, and certainly got a lot bigger, but they've still not reached out to all the people they deserve. :-)

This band, and the band Brand New. I would kill to see them in concert together. I would kill again if they would collaborate on an album.

Saw them live at Memphis in May not knowing who they were and I left being a fan. They're an amazing band.
