Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels) Lyrics

Send "Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)" Ringtone to your Cell

And if the snow buries my, my neighboorhood.
And if my parents are crying
Then i'll dig a tunnel from my window to yours,
Yeah, a tunnel from my window to yours.

You climb out the chimney,
And meet me in the middle, the middle of the town. And since there's no one else around,
We let our hair grow long,
And forget all we used to know.
Then our skin gets thicker from
Living out in the snow.

You change all the lead
sleepin' in my head,
as the day grows dim
I hear you sing a golden hymn

Then we tried to name our babies
But we forgot all the names that -
The names we used to know.
But sometimes, we remember our bedrooms,
And our parents' bedrooms,
And the bedrooms of our friends.
Then we think of our parents,
Well what ever happened to them?!

You change all the lead
Sleepin' in my head to gold,
As the day grows dim,
I hear you sing a golden hymn,
The song i've been trying to say.

Purify the colours, purify my mind.
Purify the colours, purify my mind,
And spread the ashes of the colors,
Over this heart of mine!

Alot of you seem to like the first four lines, but my favorite is:

"You change all the lead
sleepin' in my head,
as the day grows dim
I hear you sing a golden hymn"

Oh my god, this is such a great song, and i think this is the best part of the song. Dim, hymn, that is mad lyrics. Greatest part, greatest.

One of the best albums ever. And this might be the best song on the album. The first verse blows me away.

And if the snow buries my neighborhood
And if my parents are crying
Then I'll dig a tunnel from my window to yours.

Love totally feels like that sometimes.

I think this album was only just released here in the last two months. I don't know why it didn't come sooner. It's absolutely brilliant and tunnels is my new favourite song. It has a lot of qualities that I didn't think could belong to a single song. That all.
