The Souvenir Scheme
We'll take flight from shore to shore
Make maps, the world is finally yours
This is what we do
Burning down the beaten path
Pushing forward with broken backs
We've made it through
Sometimes I have to remind myself
When I'm broke and I'm lost in the world that there's nowhere else
I'd rather be than wandering
With my makeshift family
So bottle up your hopes and dreams
Our lives, a memento caught in a souvenir scheme
Ignoring all the signs and skipping over landmines
My brothers are all that I can trust
While I can't seem to satisfy my wanderlust
Burning down the beaten path
Pushing on with broken backs
Everyone is living a fucking lie
(Everyone is living a fucking lie)
Everyone is living a fucking lie
(Everyone is living a fucking lie)
Sometimes I have to remind myself
When I'm broke and I'm lost in the world that there's nowhere else
I'd rather be than wandering
With my makeshift family
I was a thousand miles from home
I was sleeping on floors and losing everything I owned
Just wandering aimlessly into the unknown
And we built an arc that could save us
And we took a risk that could break us
At any moment
Hey you
Yeah you
I'm fucking talking to you
Don't look down on me
You're fucking with a dynasty
No one wants to see your victory
You haven't seen the last of me
(Oh)
And we'll follow the road
Any way that the wind blows
(Any way that the wind blows)
'Cause this love is for life
We couldn't change it if we tried
(Couldn't change it if I tried)
And we'll follow the road
Any way that the wind blows
(Any way that the wind blows)
'Cause this love is for life
We couldn't change it if we tried
(Couldn't change it if I tried)
