Birdnest - Cherry Park Lyrics

I wish that I did not need
An audience to help me sleep
Because the world will never be big enough to satisfy my endless thought
And I wish I did not need

We fell asleep under the moonlight
On top of that old van on an August night
They prayed that I might haunt their dreams, but I made friends with wondering trees
And I won't make it home for the fight

So take me back to Cherry Park
Before these strangers stole my heart
Remind me who I want to be
Before the influence of this city
Take me back

I saw it all unfold from above
He told me he'd teach me how to love
He spoke to me mathematically, and answered inconsistently
And told me we could never be enough

From the back we all look the same
Acting like we're not playing the game
But the grave will never be big enough to satisfy my endless lust
To find out what you did to us
