North Star Bar
Drew a constellation on the ceiling in my room
High-heart motivation for the day I shoot the moon
But I could've aimed if I cut a hole in the roof
The guiding lights in redshift fading make my stomach sink
The North Star bar got torn down before I could even drink
I went from green to mean and jaded
Hospice nurse to hospice patient
Seeing off a bygone era
Emerald City's looking ancient
By the time we made it up here
Everything I loved about it had been gone
Like light pollution, yuppies forced high noon at Sunset Strip
The old haunts in my hometown, boards in Theseus' ship
I watched that place become a stranger to us all
I'm gonna make your deathbed
At a table at some pub
Raise a glass over your carcass
Here's to all the ones you loved
The world I know, is not the one I hoped it was
But it was there
(Da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da, da-da-da)
(Da-da-da, da-da-da)
It was there (It was there)
(Da, da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da. da-da)
(Da-da-da, da-da-da)
The world I know, is not the one I hoped it was
But it was there
High-heart motivation for the day I shoot the moon
But I could've aimed if I cut a hole in the roof
The guiding lights in redshift fading make my stomach sink
The North Star bar got torn down before I could even drink
I went from green to mean and jaded
Hospice nurse to hospice patient
Seeing off a bygone era
Emerald City's looking ancient
By the time we made it up here
Everything I loved about it had been gone
Like light pollution, yuppies forced high noon at Sunset Strip
The old haunts in my hometown, boards in Theseus' ship
I watched that place become a stranger to us all
I'm gonna make your deathbed
At a table at some pub
Raise a glass over your carcass
Here's to all the ones you loved
The world I know, is not the one I hoped it was
But it was there
(Da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da, da-da-da)
(Da-da-da, da-da-da)
It was there (It was there)
(Da, da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da. da-da)
(Da-da-da, da-da-da)
The world I know, is not the one I hoped it was
But it was there
