I knew why you had asked me
to meet you in Lions Park
and I came prepared with the shots
from the booth that you left in a card
and i tried to say that this was a mistake
but that wasn't what you wanted to hear
so everytime i see your face
or hear your name ill think of
Lions Park - where we thought
that you and i would go on together
Lions park - where we went to escape
but i didn't think you'd bookend it this way.
i should start to take down
all of the pictures that hang around me
and the cards that say
"we're puzzle pieces that fit perfectly"
and as hard as i'll try I won't be surprised
if im finding pieces of you for some time
so everytime i sing a song
about you i will think of
Lions Park - where we thought
that you and i would go on forever
Lions Park - where we went to escape
oh i didn't think you'd bookend it this way.
oh how foolish of me to trust in you
to actually believe that you'd here for me in
Lions Park - where we thought
that you and i would grow old together
Lions Park - where we went to escape
but i didn't think you'd bookend it this way.

This NYC quartet channels the anxious, experimental nature of late '90s-early '00s Olympia indie rock in their tense, rhythmic post-punk. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 8, 2016
