Flashlight

[Verse 1: Brian Sella, Brian Sella & Adrienne Gold]
Please fall asleep so I can take pictures of you
And hang them in my room
So when I wake I’ll be like, “Yeah, everything’s alright”
You are still here, you are still happy
You are still smiling and laughing
You are still the only thing and everything
I need in my life

[Pre-Chorus: Brian Sella, Brian Sella & Adrienne Gold]
And it goes in, in, out through the mouth
Breathing exercises I will never figure out ‘til I am
Running in circles or (I am) walking in circles or (I am)
Crawling in circles or lying on the ground

[Chorus: Brian Sella, Adrienne Gold, Brian Sella & Adrienne Gold]
And I…
Can hear your dog whistle
From my bedroom
Yeah, yeah
And I…
(I can see)
Can see a flashlight cuttin'
(A flash…)
Up the trees behind my house
(…Light)
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2: Brian Sella, Brian Sella & Adrienne Gold]
She says a lot of the kids we graduated with are now homeless
Which puts them in mad shady situations with mad shady people
If not every day, then on an every-other-day basis
And she’s probably with a few of them right now
And they are probably just drinking and talking about
How she misses getting fucked up and hangin' around
And he says “Hey, you’re good at that”
And she says “Thanks, it’s kind of all I got”
And then she looks away and says, “It’s also all I need”

[Pre-Chorus: Brian Sella]
And I can smell plastic burning
I can smell chemicals breaking down
I got your last three emails, the ones where you said
“I was sorting some things out”

[Chorus: Brian Sella, Adrienne Gold, Brian Sella & Adrienne Gold]
And he will be able
To hear her dog whistle
From his bedroom
Yeah, yeah
And I…
(I can see)
Can see a flashlight cuttin'
(A flash…)
Up the trees behind my house
(…Light)
Yeah, yeah

[Post-Chorus: Brian Sella]
And I will read the flashing
Like a Morse Code explanation
That will mean nothing
But take all night to figure out, out, out

[Outro: Brian Sella (right), Brian Sella (left), Adrienne Gold]
I am sad when I am sad, but when I am happy, oh God, I’m happy
Please fall asleep so I can take pictures of you and hang them in my room
There’s just no place in between for us to meet
So when I wake up I’ll be like, “Yeah, everything’s alright”
When I am sad, I am sad, but when I am happy, oh God, I’m happy
You are still here, you are still happy, you are still smiling and laughing
There’s just no place in between for us to meet
You are still the only thing and everything I need in my life
When I am sad, oh God, I’m sad but when I’m happy, I am happy
Please fall asleep so I can take pictures of you and hang them in my room
I can smell plastic burning; I can smell chemicals breaking down
And there’s just no place in between for us to meet
So when I wake up I’ll be like, “Yeah, everything’s alright”
I got your last three emails, the ones where you said…
When I am sad, oh God, I’m sad, but when I’m happy, I am happy
You are still here, you are still happy, you are still smiling and laughing
I can smell plastic burning; I can smell chemicals breaking down
And there’s just no place in between for us to meet
You are still the only thing and everything I need in my life
I got your last three emails, the ones where you said…
