Cameron Smith • Sur Duda - Fort Night Lyrics



Cameron Smith • Sur Duda - Fort Night Lyrics




A fried chicken stand pierced by the shadow of a steeple
Taqueria signs poking their heads over the street
Complete sets of furniture litter front lawns
And some people upon their steps
Take turns passing around something to eat
They're giving it up just like they were giving up a parking spot
Moving along--out of the way may be the last thing anyone's got
But what's so great about singing the same song every night?
Everything can be repeated
Everything except for those first times
And lately I've been thinking that it's time for a rewrite

Pictures of pleasures tease people staring at the walls
Pin-up girls straddle beer posters under the neons
Best selling authors hone their craft in bathroom stalls
Every asshole has got a story about how they know Leon
Cause here in the Fort Night they've got
Everything that you might find in LA
A place to swill, a line to sniff, a date with nothing to say
A strip of bars and most all of us still love it this way
But what's so great about going to the same party every night?
When the sun goes down the neighborhood really comes alive
But lately I've been drinking, thinking I'd rather see it dead again

Take a picture and then it's already over
It was just a little shift of frame and lens
Pull a pedal off of a four leaf clover
Luck isn't love but then I guess it all depends
On just what brand of entanglement that you're looking for
Opportunity knocks and on occasion even kicks in the door
Still what's so bad about getting in the same fight every night?
You learn when to punch when to block and when to bite
But lately I've been thinking that I don't wanna see it coming

Tell me that story one more time about how you're gonna change
You're gonna paint, you're gonna write, you're gonna find yourself again
You're gonna save all that money that you've been siphoning
For poison and that's gonna fix your brain
So when you die real busy everyone will talk about the shit you did
But lately I've been thinking that you should just stop worrying about how it all ends

Yeah, lately I have been thinking

Lately there's something on my mind
I've been thinking about it all the time
O' lately I've been thinking
Yeah, lately I have been thinking
