Lyrics The Hold Steady

The Hold Steady

Almost Everything

Something might happen but nothing will be never ending.

Right from the start I told you I can't spend the night.

Forget all the feelings.

Remember the sessions.

How we made a connection.

With the lambs from my dreams looking up at your hands.

And your hands pointing up at the lights.

Yeah, there are nights I get terrified.

I'm sure you get terrified too.

So hey won't you show me a sign

If I'm getting through to you.

I'm still pretty into you.

The bus it rolled up into Franklin at dawn and everything seemed super slo-mo.

The Waffle House waitress that asked us if we were Pink Floyd.

Sat in the back of the theater just drinking and talking

About movies and Krishna and hardcore and Jesus and joy.

Yeah there are nights I get terrified.

I'm sure you get terrified too.

So hey won't you show me a sign

If I'm getting through to you.

When the lights come up.

I can't see so much.

I can hear you breathe.

I can feel almost everything.

We checked into Methodist

We met with some residents.

They maxed out my medicine.

And let me back loose again.

Went to some movie. It was loud dumb and bloody.

The third act took place in a wormhole.

The hero ascended to heaven.

Then we headed home.

Got blocked at the exits by medics with stretchers.

Finally they said just forget it.

The kid that went down isn't dead

He just can't find his phone.

Yeah there are nights I get terrified.

I'm sure you get terrified too.

So hey won't you show me a sign.

If I'm getting through to you.

I can hear you breathe.

I can feel almost everything.

Almost everything.
