Karaoké The Great Divide ‌ Noah Kahan

I can't recall the last time that we talked about anything but lookin' out for cops

We got cigarette burns on the same side of our hands

We ain't friends, we're just morons who broke skin in the same spot

But I've never seen you take a turn that wide and I'm high enough to still care if I die

So I tried to read the thoughts that you worked overtime to stop

You said Fuck off and I said nothing for a while

You know I think about you all the time and my deep misunderstanding of your life

And how bad it must have been for you back then and how hard it was to keep it all inside

I hope you settle down

I hope you marry rich

I hope you're scared of only ordinary shit

Like murderers and ghosts and cancer on your skin and not your soul and what He might do with it

You inched yourself across the Great Divide while we drove aimlessly along the Twin State line

I heard nothin' but the bass in every ballad that you'd play while you swore to God the singer read your mind

The world is scared of hesitatin' things

Yeah they only shoot the birds who cannot sing

And I'm finally aware of how shitty and unfair it was to stare ahead like everything was fine

You know I think about you all the time and my deep misunderstanding of your life

And how bad it must have been for you back then and how hard it was to keep it all inside

I hope you settle down

I hope you marry rich

I hope you're scared of only ordinary shit

Like murderers and ghosts and cancer on your skin and not your soul and what He might do with it

Ho oh

Rage in small ways

Did you wish that I could know

You'd fade to some place

I wasn't brave enough to go

I hope you settle down

I hope you marry rich

I hope you're scared of only ordinary shit

Like murderers and ghosts and cancer on your skin and not your soul and what He might do with it

Oh ho

Ho ooh

Oh oh oh oh ho oh

I hope you threw a brick right into that stained glass

I hope you're with someone who isn't scared to ask

I hope that you're not losin' sleep about what's next or about your soul and what He might do with it
