The Mountain Goats – No Children Lyrics

  • by
Read Time:1 Minute, 12 Second

I hope that our few remaining friends
Give up on trying to save us
I hope we come up with a fail-safe plot
To piss off the dumb few that forgave us

I hope the fences we mended
Fall down beneath their own weight
And I hope we hang on past the last exit
I hope its already too late

And I hope the junkyard a few blocks from here
Someday burns down
And I hope the rising black smoke carries me far away
And I never come back to this town again

In my life
I hope I lie
And tell everyone you were a good wife
And I hope you die

I hope we both die
I hope I cut myself shaving tomorrow
I hope it bleeds all day long
Our friends say its darkest before the sun rises

Were pretty sure theyre all wrong
I hope it stays dark forever
I hope the worst isnt over
And I hope you blink before I do

I hope I never get sober
And I hope when you think of me years down the line
You cant find one good thing to say
And Id hope that if I found the strength to walk out

Youd stay the hell out of my way
I am drowning
There is no sign of land
You are coming down with me
Hand in unlovable hand
And I hope you die
I hope we both die
