When I Came Home from the Party

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When I came home from the party Everything had changed The city was beside itself Just one inch away [Verse 2] Alright, my tongue gets split, my hands are gloves I just can't quite shake it off I just can't quite shake it off I just can't quite shake it off [Verse 3] When I came home from the movies Through each tenement line The city was in rapture for The twenty-second time [Verse 4] Alright, they haunted you in middle school All the sunlit faces Marching through the crowd All the sunlit faces marching through the crowd [Outro] All that day and all that night our dead friends walked into the streets Their faces in the doorways like a mirror to your photographs They mingled with the crowds until the living and the dead became each other
