Out of Sight, Out of Mind Lyrics by Dear Youth

You Could Wish Me The Best

2018

[Verse 1]
I’ve dubbed myself a martyr
Those sixties dreams in color
Always offered front row center
We’ve all felt welcome
Institutions telling me something different
It’s persistence
Our distance, for instance
[Chorus]
You turned up the gain
You told lies but you won’t lie to my face
I’ll take all the blame if it gets me out of the rain
I’m locked out of the gate
Your spare key is gone from its usual place
But I’ll take the blame if it gets me inside and safe
[Verse 2]
Your dreams retreating
(Been told your life it was right)
Working, repeating
(Subordination without a fight)
While you’re refusing to season
And it's all said and done
Look whose hairline’s receding
And are you just having fun?
[Chorus]
You turned up the gain
You told lies but you won’t lie to my face
I’ll take all the blame if it gets me out of the rain
I’m locked out of the gate
Your spare key is gone from its usual place
But I’ll take the blame if it gets me inside and safe
[Bridge]
Out of sight at the crack of dawn again
We’ve reached a dead end
I think we’ve reached a dead end
Retrace the familiar steps of my old man
We’ve reached a dead end
I think we’ve reached a dead end
[Chorus]
You turned up the gain
(You turned up the gain)
You told lies but you won’t lie to my face
I’ll take all the blame if it gets me out of the rain
I’m locked out of the gate
(I’m locked out of the gate)
Your spare key is gone from its usual place
But I’ll take the blame if it gets me inside and safe
