Selden Mansions

Lyrics for Selden Mansions

My heart pounds for towns Where no one makes a sound Quiet lives and peace of mind Where nothing's ever on the line Dying for it now Open roads leave a hole in my heart I get home and I blink then I'm gone again Yeah, those sidewalkless streets They're so priceless to me Get me on Long Island now Cry tear after tear, and Find What will always be by Your side In life I know it seems like I'm barely Here Now Try to be present Don't break down Or live with regret For that time overseas Where I couldn't be reached I don't mean to let you down Each year pulls Further and further From staying here This choice is a burden The West Coasts a dream Made in heaven for me But I need Long Island now Cry Tear after tear And find What will always be By your side In life I know it seems like you're barely here Life crawls away from you so slow So far away from your first Look Touch The things that feel so lush And you just can't replace As every day flies by at lucid place Then falls away Street lights Signs guiding you home Wherever you go
