Oceans & Engines - Live at The Wiltern

He just walked off, but you guys, can you give it up for Jeremy
Who switches my guitar?
Every other song, every single night, this whole tour
Thanks Jeremy, we love you
We've reached the saddest song in this set
And we do this every single night
So I'd love for you guys to carry the tradition
And turn your flashlights on
For this moment right here
Yes, oh, my goodness thank you so much

Saturday sunset
We're lying on my bed with five hours to go
Fingers entwined and so were our minds crying, "I don't want you to go"
You wiped away tears
But not fears under the still and clear indigo
You said, "Baby, don't cry, we'll be fine
You're the one thing I swear I can't outgrow"

My mother said the younger me was a pretending prodigy
Well nothing, much has changed
'Cause while you're wolfing down liquor
My soul, it gets sicker
But I'm stickin' to the screenplay
Gotta say I'm okay, but answer this, babe
How is it now that somehow you're a strangеr?
You were mine just yеsterday
I pray the block in my airway dissipates
And instead deters your airplane's way

But heaven denied
Destiny decried
Something beautiful died
Too soon

But I'm letting go
I'm giving up the ghost
But don't get me wrong
I'll always love you, that's why I wrote you this very last song
I guess this is where we say goodbye
I know I'll be alright
Someday I'll be fine
But just not tonight

Plunging into all kinds of diversions
Like blush wine and sonorous soirées
But even with gin and surging adrenaline
I see you're all that can intoxicate
Oceans and engines, you're skilled at infringing on great love affairs
'Cause now my heart's home
All I've known is long gone and ten thousand miles away

I'm not okay

But I'm letting go
I'm giving up the ghost
But don't get me wrong
I'll always love you, that's why I wrote you this very last song
I guess this is where we say goodbye
I know I'll be alright
But just not

Tonight was the first time I stared into seas of beguiling sepia two years ago
And the first time I learned real world superpowers lived in three words
They revitalized my fraying bones, oh
Now what do you do when your pillar crumbled down, you've lost all solid ground?
Both dreams and demons drowned and this void's all you've found
And doubts light it aglow?
I have so many questions
But I'm pouring them into the ocean
And I'm starting up my engine

And I'm letting go
I'm giving up your ghost
It's come to a close
I marked the end with this last song I wrote
I'm letting go
(This is the last falsetto)
(I'll ever sing to you)
(My great lost love)

Thank you so much LA

Alright you guys
This is the last time on this North American run that we will ever sing this specific song
So I need you guys to go as hard as you fucking can
I want the ceilings to shake
I want the grounds to rumble
Y'all ready?
