Local Boy Lost

Tell them he'll catch the fight, maybe just not tonight, no

I'm homesick, but I don't have a home
There's too many dogs that I shouldn't have boned
Fast cars that I could've owned
A long, long time ago

Remind me not of this shit I've got
I may look nonchalant but I haven't forgotten
A smile instead of sulking
Brings a brighter day

But still we laugh and we don't cry
Too high to even question a brother in disguise
Take off your jacket, come in for the ride
We're celebrating just another local boy lost
They're on the rise

Longing for a girl to chase
Where the mantel-piece matches her fireplace
I've not seen one of these since, oh so long ago

Shaking, it's half past three
And I have a mouth full of bumble bees
I swear that chair just spoke to me
Come on the brighter day

But still we laugh and we don't cry
Too high to even question a brother in disguise
Take off your jacket, come in for the ride
We're celebrating just another local boy lost
They're on the rise

Tell them he'll catch the fight, maybe just not tonight, no

But still we laugh and we don't cry
Too high to even question a brother in disguise
Take off your jacket, come in for the night
We're celebrating just another local boy lost
They're on the rise

Tell them he'll catch the fight, maybe just not tonight, no

But still we laugh and we don't cry
Too high to even question a brother in disguise
Take off your jacket, come in for the night
We're celebrating just another local boy lost
They're on the rise

Tell them he'll catch the fight, maybe just not tonight, no
