Forest Green Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Here on Forest Green
Everyone knows that the life is so serene
And what's not to love?
Under the sky and the shining stars above
Stars above

[Verse 2]
A subterranean life
I don't get out, don't see much daylight
I guess the air is sweet
Familial ghost, come and haunt me in my sleep
In my sleep

[Pre-Chorus]
But I only stay here for survival
Every day is like the one before, it seems

[Chorus]
On Forest Green, the lights go dim
The awful night was creeping in again
In again
It's something that you've known since birth
You understand this place is cursed
It is cursed
And it feels like home

[Verse 3]
It's in the landlord's smile
The satisfied gaze of the rank and file
We got the sea and the sand
We got colonial days on stolen, stolen land
Stolen land

[Verse 4]
Farewell to Forest Green
No more oasis in the Anthropocene
Only flat black glass
Under the waves and gone at, gone at last
Gone at last

[Pre-Chorus]
Only, only stay here for survival
Always room for new arrivals on the scene

[Chorus]
In Forest Green, the lights go dim
The awful night was creeping in again
In again
It's something that you've known since birth
You understand this place is cursed
It is cursed
But it feels like home
Feels like home
And I can't stay long

This happened for me on a couple of times on this record: The mood of the song informs the mood of the lyrics. We put this thing together and, being back out on [Vancouver] Island for as long as I was, I was having some deeply conflicted feelings: Like, everybody must be kind of tired of me complain...
