SEATTLE Read it in the newspaper Saw it in on the TV And I thumbed through a magazine Watched it on the silver screen No I never ever been to Seattle No I never ever been to Seattle Well I read all about the space needle And pioneer square Whole lot of johnnies play guitar everywhere No I never ever been to Seattle No I never ever been to Seattle Read it in the newspaper Read it on the web Took a ride on the monorail Only in my head No I never ever been to Seattle No I never ever been to Seattle

v1: The door is open, you don't need to break in I know you're hoping you will find yourself a friend But in the small hours, they led you away I'm sorry you couldn't stay v2: I can't pretend to know what it's like I've never been in your shoes, but you know I'll try to understand this thing you're going through Part of me has been there, too ch: Sometimes we get sad and we need to go home What do we do when our shiny past is gone? We can't go back, no matter what we think So come on in, have a seat, I'll pour you a drink v3: Don't know what happened to bring you back here I should be laughing, but instead I'm close to shedding tears How will this play out? It ain't easy to say The memories, they won't fade away ch: Sometimes we get sad and we need to go home What do we do when our shiny past is gone? We can't go back, no matter what we think So come on in, have a seat, I'll pour you a drink br: Everybody's got to be somewhere A safe space to go when it seems nobody cares v1.5: The door is open, why'd you try to break in? ch: We all get sad and we need to go home What do we do when our shiny past is gone? We can't go back, no matter what we think So come on in, have a seat, I'll pour you a drink So come on in, have a seat, I'll pour you a drink

I don’t even believe you anymore 
you got nothing to say
 did your momma not teach you
 how to tell the score
 how to find the takeaway Can’t seem to shut up Your precious choices You say you’re never gonna fold You’re so damn put on 
you’ve lost your voices just like a two-year-old You can spend your sleepless nights Just wondering how those blinders work Do they take ‘em off when no one’s round To call ‘em soulless jerks Sometimes I look around me I just need another drink You can lead a man to the Promised Land But you can’t make him think There ain’t much left to be done for rabid dogs
 just give ‘em space to spin ‘round 
I guess a wise man would tell you take your time 
gotta get lost before you’re found Can’t seem to shut up Your precious choices You say you’re never gonna fold You’re so damn put on
 you’ve lost your voices just like a two-year-old You can spend your sleepless nights Just wondering how those blinders work Do they take ‘em off when no one’s round To call ‘em soulless jerks Sometimes I look around me I just need another drink You can lead a man to the Promised Land But you can’t make him think

Sent alone Cast a light Bullet lists return, never checking twice Pick a wave Spinning wheels of home Genericide Sent alone Flicker of a screen, stills to IPS Cast alight Blue glow to white walls Nightlight of its time Genericide
