MANCHESTER ORCHESTRA
"Top Notch"
(Andy Hull / Manchester Orchestra)

There's two twin deaf kids
And they've got to make an ungodly decision
They decide which one gets to leave this place
And which one will forsake it to make it

So the first kid says in this temporal tone
I don't think there's a way to resolve it
We should wrap both these towels
Around our blistering bones and wait it out in the closet

His brother looks him up and down
And prophesized how all of it should end
He says "We're buried underneath the yard
And no one ever listens or visits"

All that I know is no way to fix it
All that I know is no way to fix it

It didn't really matter how it happened when it did
'Cause when it happened you reacted
With an apathetic wince
So you try to wash it out
But that's a stain that won't dissolve
And we all believed in ghosts
Until you walked into the wall

So give up!

All that I know is no way to fix it
All that I know is no way to fix it
