Named after the film but lyrically removed from it, “Good Will Hunting”, is driven by unshakably infectio...
[Verse 1]
You walk up on the raised edge
Hands out for balance
You slip and you almost grab mine, but you find your feet
And I never wanted so much someone to fall
It’s just been a weekend
But in my mind
We summer in France with our genius daughters now
And you teach me to play the piano
[Pre-Chorus]
You call
I'll be there
What's more?
I'm scared of the phone
Don't ring it
Please know
That I'm just trying to find
Some way to keep me in your mind
And later on
Everyone will say "it was cool"
[Chorus]
"She had Billie Eilish style"
"Movin' to Berlin for a little while"
"Tryna find something to hold on to"
"Never texts me nothing
But she wants to tell me
She's not that hard to find"
And "message me if you change your mind"
Darlin', I'll keep fine
[Verse 2]
And if we’re on a burnin' starship
The escape pods filled with your friends
Your childhood film photos
There's no room for me to go
Oh, I'd wait there
Float with the wreckage
Fashion a longsword
Traverse the Milky Way
Tryna get home to you
And you bring some piece of the stars
[Pre-Chorus]
You call
I'll be there
What's more?
I'm scared of the phone
Don't ring it
Please know
That I'm just trying to find
Some way to keep me in your mind
And later on
Everyone will say "it was cool"
[Chorus]
"She had Billie Eilish style"
"Movin' to Berlin for a little while"
"Tryna find something to hold on to"
"Never texts me nothing
But she wants to tell me
She's not that hard to find"
And "message me if you change your mind"
Darlin', I'll keep fine
Everyone will say "it was cool"
[Chorus]
Aw, "She had Billie Eilish style"
"Moving to Berlin for a little while"
"Tryna find something to hold on to"
"Never texts me nothing
But she wants to tell me
She's not that hard to find"
And "message me if you change your mind"
Darling, I'll keep fine

Lewis Evans:
This is another slightly silly one, and it’s got a really silly ending which actually never made the cut on the album, but it’s heavily driven by the riff on the guitars. I think at the time we were listening to quite a bit of Kurt Vile, especially rhythmically. I can remember a conver...
