lirik lagu the brave optimistic - kill me
[verse 1]
on the civic center lawn, my life was threatened by a swan
twelve years later, picnic gear, i have my first date at that pond
it’s a tale of love and p-ssion, but this song ain’t for a girl
it’s about the greatest hometown in this stupid, messed up world
i used to hedge my lyrics, it’s a scary thing to do
telling people how you’re feeling to a dilettantish tune
but when i see that grapefruit sunset through my neighbor’s tree
i wanna tell the world the beauty of this desert dream
[chorus 1]
not a branch along the family tree that lives away from me
and every block and every scene has got a memory
the last home of the cowboy and the new frontier of art
phoenix is a bear trap and it’s gone and caught my heart
it’s gonna k!ll me to leave arizona
[verse 2]
the kindhearted midwest may make us look like d-cks
but compared to la pr-cks, us desert folks are nice sh-t
we’re not a perfect place, but when we’re good we’re right on point
now sheriff joe stuck in court and those in need can smoke a joint
got hippies in sedona, got ghosts in old jerome
up on the payson rim my grandpa built a second home
jimmy’s rocking out with squeegee, we got goddam frank lloyd wright
and there’s never been a time where i can’t close my eyes at night cuz’
[chorus 2]
not a branch along the family tree that lives away from me
and every block and every scene has got a memory
the last home of the cowboy and the new frontier of art
phoenix is a bear trap and it’s gone and caught my heart
it’s gonna k!ll me to leave arizona
[bridge]
pack my sh-t into a u-haul truck
ship my casket off to omaha
land of saddle creek and math on bugs
it ain’t heaven but it’s close enough
may i rest in peace
[chorus 3]
she lives just off the 202, her dad the 101
too many scenes have got her ghost there’s just nowhere to run
i gave her all my favorite spots and left for myself none
but there’s a way to end this pain that’s not too permanent
it’s gonna k!ll me to leave arizona
thank god it’s gonna k!ll me to leave arizona
