Matthew Good Empty's Theme Park lyrics

Used to steal real estate signs
Cookie keep 'em in her basement
Used to stay up all night
Chemistry set a replacement

Yeah I've seen that door
And I've walked through it both ways before

Yeah I live just around here
And I sleep just around here
And I wake up every day
And my feet hit the floor in exactly the same place

Tell me, will I love?
Tell me, will it be enough?
Tell me, will I stay
With my feet in exactly the same place?

Hold me like you'll never let me go
Bear it like you'll never let it show
Shine the light and so never let me go
Never let me go


I grew up just around here
I took a few just around here
I wake up every day
Poisoning my head behind exactly the same face

Tell me, will I dream?
Tell me, will it be serene?
Tell me, will I stay
With my feet in exactly the same place?

Hold me like you'll never let me go
Bear it like you'll never let it show
Shine the light and so never let me go
Never let me go, never let me go.
