about

jack conte x twenty one pilots

lyrics

He lived down by the farm house
Where the stray cats sleep at night
Just a deck of cards, two fold-out chairs
And the ghost of his wife
And the Devil lived in his doorway
Kept out the love and hope
He lived a long, long, long time
A long time ago

He lost one yellow Sunday when he reached into his throat
Pulled out all the people that he had been and tried to choke
But together they overwhelmed him and he couldn't help but explode
He lost a long, long, long time
A long time ago

Asked a man in town and they said he's lawless
Said he was strange and he was all alone -

(I'm so high, my jumpsuit takes me so high
I'm flying from a fire, from Nico and the Niners, oh)

Well, he left in a hurry
When the cops kicked in his door
He jumped out the second story, went down the road and hijacked a car
He stuck his head out the broken window and he howled like the Devil's own
He left a long, long, long time -

(I'm heavy, my jumpsuit is on steady)
(I'm lighter when I'm lower,) A long time ago....
(I'm higher when I'm heavy, oh) A long time ago....
A long time, ah! (I'm so high, my jumpsuit takes me so high)
(I'm flying from a fire, from Nico and the Niners, oh)

Asked a man in town and they said he's lawless
Said he was strange and he was all alone
No place to go, he went up in smoke...
[- just a bunch of "do's" - ]

He flew right past the border
He ditched the car and dyed his hair
He took out his deck of cards for
a couple last rounds of solitaire
And he slept just like a baby
Though the night was hard and cold
He flew a long, long, long time
A long time ago

When he passed through the devils doorway
Well, he knew just where he was
He threw back his head and howled as he resigned himself to dust
[NICO & THE NINERS VOCALS FADING IN]

And they found him in the Rio Fuerte
His body was still afloat
He passed a long, long, long time
A long time ago

(I'm heavy, my jumpsuit is on steady) A long time ago
(I'm lighter when I'm lower,) A long time ago
(I'm higher when I'm heavy, oh)
A long time ago.

TTBT has some of my favorite songs written by The Mechs. Iphis is my personal favorite due to its ties with Greek Mythology, but it's definitely an album I have on repeat constantly. yumeinati
