Fake Empire
Stay out super late tonight picking apples, making pies
Put a little something in our lemonade and take it with us
We’re half-awake in a fake empire
We’re half-awake in a fake empire
Tiptoe through our shiny city with our diamond slippers on
Do our gay ballet on ice
Bluebirds on our shoulders
We’re half-awake in a fake empire
We’re half-awake in a fake empire
Turn the light out, say goodnight
No thinking for a little while
Let’s not try to figure out everything it was
It’s hard to keep track of you falling through the sky
We’re half-awake in a fake empire
We’re half-awake in a fake empire

Nice call! I have been loving on the new National album pretty hard recently. Squalor Victoria has just been going around on repeat.

Yeah…it’s a really great album. I’ve been listening to basically their whole catalog rather obsessively lately…
