Portland Lights - Banner Pilot

Yeah, people stop and stare through stale smoke air

The fireworks blare, she asks me

So then I came clean and killed the dream

Finale seen so quickly

The fake smiles made it seem sadder

Perceptions all torn and tattered

And now

Find myself walking by Tabor park one spring night

It’s where our future died and these same Portland lights

Will help me find my way past wet, blurred street signs

Some lawn at day I’ll lay and pass out clutching cheap red wine

I think I spent the greater part of tonight just waiting for you

On the chance that I’d meet up with the girl I never outgrew

Yeah, people stop and stare through stale smoke air

The fireworks blare, she asks me

So then I came clean and killed the dream

Finale seen so quickly

The fake smiles made it seem sadder

Perceptions get torn and tattered

So now

Find myself walking by Tabor park one spring night

It’s where our future died and these same Portland lights

Will help me find my way past wet, blurred street signs

Some lawn at day I’ll lay and pass out clutching cheap red wine

But now with shit to show, it’s kinda hard to let you know

Kick this dust off my clothes, spit the dust out of my mouth, make my way

downtown

Waking up to city sounds, I’ll take one last look around

And if the streets are empty then I’ll let the raindrops wipe me clean of you
