Instead of dusty roads of snow We dream of brick and skyline And every second on the road Collect calls we'll be dialing But oh those moments that I miss Concrete and obscene street cars And all the things talked about Through my ears like sweet nothing This way of life's a crime My mornings don't exist you know They're just a waste of daylight With out a reason to get up I don't even bother trying After hours smirks and poses Just to get a smile Countless blocks of window shops And nobody is buying But oh those moments that I miss Concrete and obscene street cars And all the things talked about Through my ears like sweet nothing This way of life's a crime After hours smirks and poses Just to get a smile Countless blocks of window shops And nobody is buying But oh those moments that I miss Concrete and obscene street cars And all the things talked about Through my ears like sweet nothing This way of life's a crime

Huron the South side Not quite Superior Caught by a landslide No one could hear me though All my ghosts hang around All the hauntings they have found Nameless roads where we go On highways carved out of stone Hijack the Summer Lost in the skyline Tall cans in Bellwoods Escape to rooftops, with a Transistor radio All my ghosts hang around All the hauntings they have found Tiny lights all in white Light the railing up at night Hijack the Summer Far away in your dad's old Chevrolet, We'll go far away... Hijack the Summer

Radio 1 03:23
Something's always haunting me Bending station frequency White noise on the CBC Sentimental piracy Fraternize with your ghost Shoot the breeze Echo in my cup From the East She comes on so seldomly Late at night when I'm asleep In tape hiss and the mic bleed Sentimental piracy Fraternize with your ghost Shoot the breeze Echo in my cup From the East From coast to coast we listen to same thing and tune into the radio... Fraternize with your ghost Shoot the breeze Echo in my cup From the East

Sunday nights the lights they flicker Four O'clock the day gets gets dimmer Pull the blankets stop the shiver On the couch to sleep I drifter The window sills rest in the shade The Sun beats off their chests all day So hey, how are you? You know I like the things you do You rely on broken finger tips For compliments and sedatives for your bed So hey, how are you? You know I like the things you do You reach for something beautiful Through rainy days so miserable That fall around your face Everything just comes up rosie China cups and tea cozies What you do might be quite the story But it fills our heads with worry I Can't cover up this time for you Would you for me if I were you? So hey, how are you? You know I like the things you do You rely on broken finger tips For compliments and sedatives for your bed So hey, how are you? You know I like the things you do You reach for something beautiful Through rainy days so miserable That fall around your face We fall away Wither away A still life posed Through glass panes The days we share 'Til we run out of time So hey, how are you? You know I like the things you do You rely on broken finger tips For compliments and sedatives for your bed So hey, how are you? You know I like the things you do You reach for something beautiful Through rainy days so miserable That fall around your face

Do you remember where we were four years ago? I was sneaking out, taking things slow You had you nose in books And your eyes were wide open You couldn't see it all Even if you tried We're just faking it 'Til we make it out If we make it out Nights spent staying in Were just making out, were just making out All those summer swing sets Dipping jut below the stars Illuminated headlights Radio played on and on We were blind as fuck With all the windows fogged The Quiet Things That No Ever Knows We're just faking it 'Til we make it out If we make it out Nights spent staying in Were just making out, were just making out All my favourite lines Sung to highway signs of green and white And you hold it close And Keep It Like A Secret

House 03:35
Soft creak the floor boards So restless Soft sound the radiator Hums along Weathered panes of glass The paint it chips and it cracks Shutters open and close Any way the wind blows This house breathes Nobody else does This box is dead bolt saftied All the time Back doors for sneaking in and out At times The trees they keep me up They never quiet down And I won't sleep at all Afraid to lose the sound This house breathes Nobody else does Better keep quiet now I can keep quiet now Oh no... This house breathes Nobody else does

Somebody said once Somebody said, you're out of your head Going to Jim's Best Westerns I just need to get out of my bed And see what the day brings See what the day brings Another twenty minutes late I'm tired of bosses And cavalier foxes All talking their jive over me I'm gonna walk slow With my hands in my pockets And close my eyes Take my chances with traffic Write some Dear John letters With out the addresses and sign mine name with the Zeroes and ex's Wait and see what the world has to offer First the womb and then next is a coffin Pretty nurses line up in a row now Pretty nurses line up in a row now

There's something wrong Because I say there is I'm not neurotic I just over think Our conversations go right through my head When I'm sleeping Dreaming in your bed Try not to panic in the blankets tight I'm shaking fit, I keep you up all night I may be naive but that's alright I may be naive but that's alright I may be nonsense Be on your door step But we're alright? Are we alright? When you're not near me I stay up all night When you can't see me I stay up all night So won't you come here Baby I'm your man I'd rather shake than shiver I know you'll understand Lay next me in these lonely sheets Close your eyes I'll sing you to sleep We'll all explode there's just no other way We'll all explode there's just no other way I may be naive but that's alright I may be naive but that's alright I may be nonsense Be on your door step But we're alright? Are we alright? We'll all explode there's just no other way!

about

Please enjoy Four Star Daydream's All My Ghosts. An album dedicated to all those who long for late nineties emo, catchy hooks, and staying up all night.
