Handstand Lyrics by The Fontaines

ii

2016

Handstand, to flare pants
I'll start a fire if you want me to
Thin skin, wide grin
'Til luck is gonna hurt you
You used to make me laugh so hard, I couldn't breathe
Now I'm a junkyard piece of art and you don't miss me
But, although, la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Lights are calling out your name
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Lights are calling out your name
I tried to tiptoe through your heart like an avalanche
Now that you changed who you are, you don't care who I am
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Lights are calling out your name
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Lights are calling out your name
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Lights are calling out your name
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Lights are calling out your name
I shouldn't miss, or reminisce
Someone like you, that I can't undo
Another chance, your loyal fan
A romance on a shaky handstand
The city goes, alone
'Cause where you go the lights will follow
The city goes, alone
'Cause where you go the lights will follow
The city goes, alone
'Cause where you go the lights will follow
The city goes, alone
'Cause where you go the lights will follow
