Year of the Dog Lyrics by Barely Civil

Barely Civil // Barely March

2018

Still in town for the Chinese New Year
It's the year of the dog and I'm locked in bed
Over the fireworks I would hear you say
I can go to the highest of heights
I will know your name as I'm standing there
Waiting
Still in town for the Chinese New Year
It's the Year of the Dog and I'm locked in bed
With my head on my pillow I see you
I know what you look like now
I would grow inside
I would see your eyes
Through fire and smoke
So rip down the window
I need to get out
I need to go outside
So rip down the window
I need to get out
I need to go outside
So rip down the window
I want to go outside
So rip down the window
I want to go outside
And the fog made monsters
I hope that I will
But I can hear the voice inside my head
That's telling me the weather's no good
I think I'm overrun
By voices that don't mesh very well
A constant nagginess
And how I feel so well
Took the back roads til I found
Myself on a highway
With the notion that I'm better off
You're trying to change
You're free and divorced
And if I could feel a laugh for today
Just scratch my car and feel my body
For once I'd say
So rip down the window
I want to go outside
So rip down the window
I want to go outside
So rip down the window
I want to go outside
Tonight
It's the Year of the Dog
And I'm locked in bed
So rip down the window
I need to get out
I need to go outside
Go outside
I want to go outside
Still in town for the Chinese New Year
It's the Year of the Dog
And I'm locked in bed
