Noah Kahan The Great Divide

I can't recall the last time that we talked About anything but looking out for cops We got cigarette burns in the same side of our hands We ain't friends, we're just morons Who broke skin in the same spot But I've never seen you take a turn that wide And I'm high enough to still care if I die So I tried to read the thoughts that you'd worked overtime to stop You said, "Fuck off, " and I said nothin' for a while You know I think about you all the time And my deep misunderstanding of your life And how bad it must have been for you back then And how hard it was to keep it all inside I hope you settlе down, I hope you marry rich I hope you're scarеd of only ordinary shit Like murderers and ghosts and cancer on your skin And not your soul and what He might do with it You inched yourself across the great divide While we drove aimlessly along the Twin State line I heard nothing but the bass in every ballad that you'd play While you swore to God the singer read your mind But the world is scared of hesitating things Yeah, they only shoot the birds who cannot sing And I'm finally aware of how shitty and unfair It was to stare ahead like everything was fine You know I think about you all the time And my deep misunderstanding of your life And how bad it must have been for you back then And how hard it was to keep it all inside I hope you settle down, I hope you marry rich (Oh-oh) I hope you're scared of only ordinary shit (Oh-oh) Like murderers and ghosts and cancer on your skin (Oh-oh) And not your soul and what He might do with it Ah-oh Rage, in small ways Did you wish that I could know That you'd fade to some place I wasn't brave enough to go? I hope you settle down, I hope you marry rich I hope you're scared of only ordinary shit Like murderers and ghosts and cancer on your skin And not your soul and what He might do with it Ah (Ah), woah Ah Ah, Lord Ah I hope you threw a brick right into that stained glass I hope you're with someone who isn't scared to ask I hope that you're not losing sleep about what's next Or about your soul and what He might do with it
