kid brown - nost lyrics

Loading...

czech air choked down
prague in june
a hundred things to think of
and i choose you

your fur lined jacket would fit right in
the kafka museum
bridges
and mausoleums

i think of you out there
my mind plays jokes
stealing from memory
it’s b-mming smokes

to burn up, choke down
catch it’s breath
you took the air with you
when you left

cyprus is nice this time in july
my journal sprawled out on agata’s floor
i filled my eyes with life since you died
so when i write your name
who is it for

hiked with your ghost along icelandic coastlines
trying to put that voice to rest which
filled my backpack with camus and jetlag
looking for meaning in the paper stacks, with
tabs of acid from berlin to crash my
head in ways it’s never felt
it hurt like h-ll, mornings hungover
slung the pack on my shoulders
you never left

la in august was a godd-mn joke
the hottest i’ve felt
still miles to go ’til home
i thought alone i’d be okay
it’s just a little raw today
still searching for closure
in departures and runways

then a woman named nata
on the ukrainian coast
helped me speak to my friend
let me speak to his ghost
he said:

“please let me go, kid
just let me go, kid
please let me go, kid
please don’t be selfish”

but i was and still am
packing books into tombs
that you built with your words
and my nerves shot, knowing
we tried to build forever
but that’s just how it goes
saw his face in my own
kitchen vacant and cold, said:

“i’ll let you go, kid
though i’m still selfish
i’ll let you go, kid
please be patient

i’ll have that funeral for you
after all these years
hang up that pack
and let it dry with the tears
well”

i’ll let you go, kid
though i’m still selfish
i’ll let you go, kid
please be patient

i’ll let you go, kid
though i’m still selfish
i’ll let you go, kid
i got your message
