Le Sigh - Johnny Foreigner

This one goes out to Gemma Evans and my vague attempts to tie threads together

Swapping stories and signing napkins in a bar in Tokyo

Shibuya sleeps as Solihull weeps for the coke in the clubs and the fights on

the street

Every exit feels like retreat, I’m just glad we both escaped

(And we can talk about it.)

Oh you can keep those days

Remind me why I couldn’t stay

How quickly the resentment fades, when you know yr never coming back here

You can always trust those Solihull girls to walk out when the timing’s bad

And there’s never a good time, never a good time

Says something when those Solihull girls are complaining that our bands all

sound like…

A copy of a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy of

a copy of a copy of a copy

So this one goes out to some kids in Snobs, still fighting the floor when the

battle’s are lost

Every playlist came with a cost;

you got the Peace that you deserved

So give me a scene that can carry it’s weight, or give me a scene that’ll give

it me straight

Wait, no

Give me a scene where the hype comes last, and a night bus that just comes

(And they’ll talk about us)

So you can keep those nights

This war you think you have to fight

How easily the guilt subsides, when you know yr never coming back here
