Twin Peaks

These lyrics were damn hard to find, so I bought a physical CD and managed to decipher the artsy handwriting.

Twin Peaks by Sleepy Vikings

in a dream it was summer
and i buried my head into
the back of your neck
the sun was high and we were
 shadowless
drinking cold cokes on the front steps

i kept a telescope, i watched the skies for rain
loaded my pistol, promised "nothing ever has
 to change"
but august is lovely, lonely, dark and days
and there are miles and miles of secrets
 left to keep

i feel the fever coming back again
with it's fever lights blinking warm & red
i'm on the blackest highway in the car
 with my dead family
audrey's the fever's coming back again

...i would have
 loved you better.

little whiskey in the brown october leaves
the wind don't whisper now. it howls
or screams. i call them ghosts -
 maybe you just call them memories -

or maybe you don't think of me
