Silence Sounds

Old man living on Ansty looks kinda like me
And you can tell from his house and his car he's got a lot of money
I see him writing
In a book sitting outside his house
When I'm in doubt

I keep your perfect lawn in my daydreams
For when I wanna feel like I did everything right
And I hope I feel like you when I'm eighty
When all my friends are buried in the ground
Ten minutes away from my house
I keep your perfect lawn in my daydreams
For when I wanna feel like I did everything right
And I hope I feel like you when I'm eighty
When all my friends aren't around and I can feel the time count down
The days I have before the silence sounds

Old man living on Ansty
Doesn't he seem happy
With his wife and his kids
They laugh cause he's kinda funny
What did he study
Why did he get to live life like this
And why do most people just seem to miss and get nothing
Yeah it's unlucky
And he's there sitting outside his house
When I'm in doubt

I keep your perfect lawn in my daydreams
For when I wanna feel like I did everything right
And I hope I feel like you when I'm eighty
When all my friends are buried in the ground
Ten minutes away from my house
I keep your perfect lawn in my daydreams
For when I wanna feel like I did everything right
And I hope I feel like you when I'm eighty
When all my friends aren't around and I can feel the time count down
The days I have before the silence sounds
