lyrics

when the party was over it was raining, like it always is in portland, but still we stepped outside to greet the flashing lights pulling up to the apartment. they lit the night like day, our friends bolting away through the alleys and down the side roads. and I could faintly hear, through the ringing in my ears, the music through the windows stop. it’s over the hills and far away we go. when the party was over, and I mean busted, not just wound down, there was panic in your eyes and sweat upon your palms and liquor on your warm breath. and through the day-like night I could hear the sirens rise like bird cries in the distance. the glass slipped from your hand; you found the door and ran. I hit the music on my way out. it’s over the hills and far away we go. (w. preston)
