lyrics

I called you up last night
Cause I could hardly sleep
There was something on my mind
It was clearly bothering me
So you knocked on my door
I went and let you in
There was something odd about this
Where do I begin?

You told me maybe once I'm older
I could do the things
That I asked you all about
When I was under your wing
You told me people when they're older
They may go away
To a place inside your mind
So don't forget their name

All that I can hear tonight
Is the silence when your voice breaks
It's time like these we realize
We're worth a lot less than we hoped for

I woke you up last night
Cause I could hardly sleep
There's a picture on my nightstand
That keeps staring at me
It's not the Mona Lisa
Nor the Starry Night
Or The Son of Man
That's giving me this fright

Can you take it down
And just put it away?
There are somethings on my mind
That keep me up for days
Cause we all have those nights
When there's no reason to sleep
Cause you'll be back inside your real life
Where we're hoping you'll be

All that I can hear tonight
Is the silence when your voice breaks
It's time like these we realize
We're worth a lot less than we hoped for

You told me life was getting hard
And you can't keep holding up
You told me so many things
That I just can't live without
I wish that I could live forever with you here by my side
But the time is now upon us where we have to say goodbye

about

Slacker Justice image

Slacker Justice Pembroke, Ontario

Slacker Justice is a two piece indie-rock band from the cozy little town of Pembroke, Ontario.

Nearly 7 years ago Slacker Justice was formed and through many changes, it wasn't until January 2016 that they fell into their groove.

With a more simplified and melodic sound, Slacker Justice had begun writing many acoustic guitar and synth driven songs.
