Garden of Elysian

Lyrics

[Verse 1] In the time before we needed forgiveness You said, "Meet me after school at the top of Elysian" Sharing headphones and a plastic bottle of vodka In the distance, the crowd going wild in the stadium [Chorus] Orchestra playing under the bandshell Swaying together like cathedral bells They ring and ring and ring and ring and ring And I could only hear you singing [Verse 2] She said, "When do you think we'll stop feeling like children? 'Cause the last time I asked my mom she said she still did" As we passed the cell towers disguised like palm trees She laid out across my lap and we kept driving [Chorus] Orchestra playing under the bandshell Swaying together like cathedral bells They ring and ring and ring and ring and ring And I could only hear you singing [Bridge] Marian Harlow, sitting quiet Imagine if we had stayed Tourniquet stems the blushing tide Love isn't worship, love is change [Chorus] Orchestra playing under the bandshell Swaying together like cathedral bells They ring and ring and ring and ring and ring And I could only hear you singing Orchestra playing under the bandshell Swaying together like cathedral bells They ring and ring and ring and ring and ring And I could only hear you singing
