Parks and Altars Songtext
von Mallcops

Sacrifice our beating hearts
On picnic tables in darkened parks
After hours, we′d climb through
The holes in the fences
Me and you would pick up the pieces off the ground
And rearrange them until we found
Patterns in the static of
Forgotten places in this town

In the city I never saw the stars
Until I made it up to your parts
And you convinced me that the only way to watch the sunset
Was in the passenger seat of your car


You held your breath along with mine to feel the pain I felt inside
Of darkened parks we talked about
All winter, I would keep my mouth shut tight
So I could keep my cool
I wanna dive in empty pools
And feel the pain you talk about
I love you but I hate myself

In the city I never saw the stars
Until I made it up to your parts
And you convinced me that the only way to watch the sunset
Was in the passenger seat of your car

A pastel town for a vivid love
I see your house from miles above
The funniest joke you've ever told
A secret I′ll forever hold
In the pocket of my jacket
At the bottom of my street
I look out to see you calling
See you calling out to me
