  • Artist Info: There's a playground that we used to run on <br />
    The penny-drop that broke her arm <br />
    The monkey bars that you fell from <br />
    The swingset chain that stuck with my tongue <br />
    It's thirty below and we're far gone <br />
    If you plant yourself here I wouldn't miss you for long <br />
    But then comes the day when you leave town <br />
    I'm back to the way I was when you weren't around <br />
    <br />
    If you want to know what that was like <br />
    I'll tell you first, it was way too quiet <br />
    It rained a hundred nineteen days of the year <br />
    I spent my time falling down the stairs <br />
    I know I can't tie you to a leash <br />
    But something tells me you'd go further than Greece <br />
    And then I'll have to figure out what to do <br />
    I'm kind of afraid I'm co-dependent on you <br />
    <br />
    I'm freaking out that we've started breaking down <br />
    Before momentum picked up <br />
    Now all these doors are locked <br />
    The trees trick you 'cause they're always standing still <br />
    If time was really racing by <br />
    You could see it when you drive <br />
    <br />
    There's a rooftop deck where we still hang out <br />
    A couple of bars where we're not allowed <br />
    The roller-skates that threw you on your face <br />
    The park on the hill which was our only space <br />
    The fog is fast and it rolls right in <br />
    About the time I struck my first fifth of gin <br />
    I really don't mean to complain too much <br />
    But this is turning me into quite the lush <br />
    <br />
    SWINGSET CHAIN by LOQUAT<br />
    <br />
    I'm freaking out that we're running out of time <br />
    But to do what? <br />
    Should I stop and think of that? <br />
    Is there something I could do to slow it down? <br />
    Live in a day for once <br />
    Instead of watch it screaming by <br />
    <br />
    You're a dandelion seed <br />
    That flies through the air <br />
    And lands randomly <br />
    Then disappears <br />
    x2 <br />
    <br />
    I'm freaking out that we've started breaking down <br />
    Before momentum picked up <br />
    Now all these doors are locked <br />
    The trees trick you 'cause they're always standing still <br />
    If time was really racing by <br />
    You could see it when you drive
