Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever - The Cool Change Lyrics

Hello, old friend
Are you back again
I can hear your rings on the pavement
Nice to see you keep up appearances
But must you beg so hard on my basement

All your plants are dead
Balance in the red
But you always paid your way
Fair enough to say
How

After Collingwood
Saw you as you were
Shot for Hollywood
Draped in dirty fur
This town was not big enough
For the one of you
Doors were to narrow
And the chill wind blew

Felt it in your bones
Roll away the stone
You lose again in the northern island

But when you lay me down sweet and slow
My heart won't fight it
Stone cold
Flying like a hawk
Skywards

In the city of dreamers
There were so many like you
Snowflakes melted in the perma-sun
Bands on the run
It was warm at night
But cold inside you

Though it never rained
Sometimes hurricane
With you in the eye of them
They'd always spare your head

But when you lay me down sweet and slow
My heart won't fight it
Stone cold
Flying like a hawk
Skywards

Called you the cool change
'Cause when you darkened the doorway
Someone's life was about to get clouded
But not me though
I was the one who thought that
Sunshine from your eyes
When you smiled
You were the chosen boy
And you chose to ride the wind

But when you lay me down sweet and slow
My heart won't fight it
Stone cold
Flying like a hawk
Skywards
