lyrics

compared to the ghost town we live in
this video game sure is pretty
the pink sky, the little blue tree spirits
hiding in the grass

it's one in the morning and it's raining
they say you can sleep when you're dead
but we are dead, but we can't sleep
so we build fires in pixellated land

don't go outside, honey
the world is crying like a baby
when its mama leaves the room
stay warm and dry with me
beneath the pounding tears of January
falling on our roof

compared to the news I've been hearing
the sound of your voice sure is easy
to listen to, even though it sounds kinda sad

[chorus]

one day there will be light again
one day we will come alive again
one day we will be all right again

compared to the ghost town we live in
this video game sure is pretty
so let's go live inside of it
and never come back

'cause the world is crying like a baby
that no one knows how to soothe
just hold on tight with me
beneath the pounding tears of January
falling on our roof

one day there will be light again
one day we will come alive again
one day we will be all right again

Siena Christie recommends:

The Winfield Sessions, Vol. 1
by The Starlight Darlins

I'm still floored that I get to be in the same band as Emily Johnson-Erday, Lauren Oxford, & Gray Buchanan. This is our first EP, recorded in one hour, in one take. Folky harmonies, honest songs. Siena Christie

Lauren Oxford
by Lauren Oxford

Lauren Oxford is one of the most compassionately honest & vulnerable songwriters I've ever heard. Her debut is nothing short of a masterpiece. Acoustic chamber folk, centered on Lauren's voice. Siena Christie

American Siren
by Emily Scott Robinson

This was the album that made me really fall head over heels for Emily Scott Robinson and her incredible writing. Her storytelling and crystalline voice are just transporting. Siena Christie
