Au Revoir Simone - Dark Halls lyrics

When we got to Boston There was a TV in the room You were glowing purple, green, red, black and blue And the light in the night slammed the door When we went downtown All the babies laughed, clapped at our jokes And when the doctor called it off You ran straight through the snow Shut your eyes to see, but you didn't see me Down in the dark halls We knew that the stark walls said it all And for the first time I found the lines to a childhood memory: "We have the choice to breathe and it's gonna be me" And you may think you lost it Take away, yes you may think you lost it Don't even wonder anymore Erase your mind, turn 'round and slowly walk away Slam the door And you may think you lost it Take away, yes you may think you lost it Don't even wonder anymore Erase your mind, turn 'round and slowly walk away Slam the door
