Welcome to The Underground
"I am proud that night after night and album after album, a mass of humanity I now refer to lovingly as the pop underground, come together and sing. Whether it's in theaters and concert venues around the world, in the privacy of our own homes or the constantly shifting landscape of social media, we are a scrappy tribe and we stand for something: Music that is found, shared and cared for despite access to traditional outlets; music that lives virally and through word of mouth; music that tells a story that people want to retell." - Andrew McMahon

Oh my gosh. Once the chorus hit I got such chills. I love this song.

parked outside the house we used to live
there's a light left on inside
think of all the days we spent
orchestrating accidents
lights that used to blind us
somehow they will guide us through the night

following the outline of your face
i can see your breath move in the dark
through all the autopilot years
the tears of joy the face of fear
now that we're not hiding, somehow you're still riding in my car

no cash in the bank
no paid holidays
all we have
all we have
is gas in the tank
maps for the getaway
all we have
all we have is time

parked outside the house we used to live
staring down the green roof and the walls
the balcony the hills the pain the years of hope the months of rain
now that we're outside it i guess we survived it after all

no cash in the bank
no paid holidays
all we have
all we have
is gas in the tank
maps for the getaway
all we have
all we have
is time

all we have
is time

no white picket fence
no job with the government
all we have
is mornings in bed
coffee and aspirin
all we have
no cash in the bank
no sign of yesterday
all we have
is gas in the tank
maps for the getaway
all we have
all we have
is time

all we have
is time

all we have is time

Fixed and added all the autopilot years line which I missed the first time through.

I wonder how long it's going to take for me to not tear up every time I listen to this?

This song is so gorgeous. I really want it to be in a movie. A good one.

My sister recently got married and before she did we were talking about good songs to play to signal the end of the reception. This would have been a great one because it sounds like an ending and a beginning at the same time.

Speaking of movie vibes, I recently saw "This Is Where I Leave You," and this would have been the PERFECT end-of-movie song
