Jessie says she's been here for a thousand days

A thousand days to her that just don't mean a thing

Cause the city makes a perfect place to sleep

And daddy's coming home

He said he brought her things

Like jewels from every coast and songs for them to sing

But singing never got her very far

And this whole coast is full of pin-up paper rockstars

She said she'll run

Until her feet don't touch the ground

And as the waves carry me out

Keep listening

She'll never make a sound

So keep it coming and the details quiet

She's like a ghost that keeps you up all night

And she'll be a secret you can keep

Keep me

Cuts on paper hearts

They can be awful deep

Lips from wear and tear on different city streets

Don't all need a home, but just a place to sleep

So I will run

Until my feet don't touch the ground

And as the waves carry me out

Keep listening

She'll never make a sound

So keep it coming and the details quiet

She's like a ghost that keeps you up all night

And she'll be a secret you can keep

Keep me

Keep me

And still she finds that every time she runs

She leaves behind another piece of her

On every city street

So I will run

Until my feet don't touch the ground

And as the waves carry me out

Keep listening

So I will run

Until my feet don't touch the ground

And as the waves carry me out

Keep listening

She'll never make a sound

So keep it coming and the details quiet

She's like a ghost that keeps you up all night

And she'll be a secret you can keep

Keep me

Keep me

So keep it coming and the details quiet

She's like a ghost that keeps you up all night

And she'll be a secret you can keep

Keep me

Keep me
