Lawn Gone from Perennials by Sons of Shanley

Let the windows down
I don't want my voice to be the only sound
Colours seem so bright
When they're bathed in the glow of afternoon light
So if you're feeling down and I've not skipped town
Then can I come around
Can I come around

We can get away
Slip out the back and make our escape
They won't notice we're gone 'til the cops have moved on
So let's sneak past the sirens
Out on the lawn

So why should I care
If you're not there
It doesn't matter anyway
'Cause right by your side I will stay
Until my body rusts and decays

And I'm starting to dread
That it's all in my head
And I'm stuck sleeping in my twin-sized bed
So kiss me slowly I won't forget
The way your hands hold the back of my neck

So why should I care
If you're not there
It doesn't matter anyway
'Cause right by your side I will stay
Until my body rusts and decays
Now all these broken parts of me
I don't think they want to leave
