lyrics
I’ve spent so many nights lost in the pictures
I’ve held my fists so tight my knuckles crack
I scream so violently into my pillow
But nothing that I do will bring you back
I’ve scribbled out these words too many ways now
I’m such a hypocrite, I feel so weak
So quick to call religion just faith in science fiction
Yet here I am now praying on my knees
But I don’t need a god, I need more of your time
And it’s selfish that I feel left behind
No one knows why we don’t always get a warning
I just hope that soon enough I’ll get a sign
Cause I can’t go where you’re going
So just promise you’ll come and visit
It’s not fair never knowing
Where you went on that one-way ticket
I wonder where you are, if you can hear me?
You light up all the darkness in my mind
I feel you from a distance like you’re near me
I wish that I could see you one more time
So many different questions that I’d ask you
I really need to know that you’re alright
No clue what I believe in apart from what I’m feeling
And it feels like you’re still here at my side
But I don’t need a god, I want more of your time
And it’s selfish that I feel left behind
No one knows why we don’t always get a warning
I just hope that soon enough I’ll get a sign
Cause I can’t go where you’re going
So just promise you’ll come and visit
It’s not fair never knowing
Where you went on that one way ticket
I know you rest in peace
But now I can hardly sleep
I just need a couple good hours
I’ve held my fists so tight my knuckles crack
I scream so violently into my pillow
But nothing that I do will bring you back
I’ve scribbled out these words too many ways now
I’m such a hypocrite, I feel so weak
So quick to call religion just faith in science fiction
Yet here I am now praying on my knees
But I don’t need a god, I need more of your time
And it’s selfish that I feel left behind
No one knows why we don’t always get a warning
I just hope that soon enough I’ll get a sign
Cause I can’t go where you’re going
So just promise you’ll come and visit
It’s not fair never knowing
Where you went on that one-way ticket
I wonder where you are, if you can hear me?
You light up all the darkness in my mind
I feel you from a distance like you’re near me
I wish that I could see you one more time
So many different questions that I’d ask you
I really need to know that you’re alright
No clue what I believe in apart from what I’m feeling
And it feels like you’re still here at my side
But I don’t need a god, I want more of your time
And it’s selfish that I feel left behind
No one knows why we don’t always get a warning
I just hope that soon enough I’ll get a sign
Cause I can’t go where you’re going
So just promise you’ll come and visit
It’s not fair never knowing
Where you went on that one way ticket
I know you rest in peace
But now I can hardly sleep
I just need a couple good hours

This is a special band. Got to see these guys in concert and got to meet one of them casually at a small bar, and they are a talented, class act through-and-through. This is a joyous record with anthemic songs for those days when you need a lift.

Just had to get this on vinyl although I've been listening to this album for a couple of years already.... now it can take it rightful place beside " Endless Summer!"🧔

After I discovered GUNSHIP with UNICORN, I went through all their material in a rush. They're whole discography is great, and I think this is the greatest. This album haunts me. I can't listen to it once. Even if I turn it off, I still hear it echoing in the back of my mind. GUNSHIP has a mastery of the bridge that reaches the level of mastery in this album that's just unrivaled. If you get only one album from GUNSHIP, get this one.
