The War on Drugs - In Reverse Lyrics

You've been out on the street
Talking bout the war with me
And the background is at night
Don't want to hesitate
Will they tell me where you're hiding?
But through the haze there's no one there
Wondering if you care
Calling out your name in the darkness

When I'm done with my time here
And my keepsake is strong
Through the railways
But I never mind going
And I realize now that the road is bare
And I hear it all through the grand parade
And I don't mind you disappearing
'Cause I know you can be found
Maybe living on the dark side of the street, damn
When we're living in the moment
And losing our grasp
Making it last with the grand parade in our past

Sometimes I wait for the cold wind to blow
As I struggle with myself right now
As I let her darkness in
But I don't mind chasing you through the back ways for the keys
It evaporates and fades like a grand parade

And I don't mind you disappearing
When I know you can be found
When you living on the dark side of the street, damn
We're just living in the moment, making our past
Losin' our grasp through the grand parade

I'll be here or I'll fade away
Never cared about moving, never cared about now
Not the notes I'm playing
Is there room in the dark, in between the changes?
Like a light that's drifting, in reverse I'm moving
