lyrics
It's OK, I understand
Our conversation has come to an end
It's getting late, It's been a lot of fun
It's been real but now you've got to run
Take me offline
See the signals
Read the signs
We had our moments
We had our time
Take me offline
So many secrets I hold inside
They're safe with me, they'll never see the light
Memories we shared become corrupt
Free up some space erase the ghost of love
I feel used you seem so tired
You know where I sleep, check in once and awhile
What was once new has fallen out of style
Time to upgrade to the latest model
Thinner, faster, smarter, smaller
Our conversation has come to an end
It's getting late, It's been a lot of fun
It's been real but now you've got to run
Take me offline
See the signals
Read the signs
We had our moments
We had our time
Take me offline
So many secrets I hold inside
They're safe with me, they'll never see the light
Memories we shared become corrupt
Free up some space erase the ghost of love
I feel used you seem so tired
You know where I sleep, check in once and awhile
What was once new has fallen out of style
Time to upgrade to the latest model
Thinner, faster, smarter, smaller

Excited for this. Pkids are one of the most consistently exceptional bands I've experienced in the last 30 years. Exceptional humans on top of that, exemplars of the DIY ethos and true indie spirit. Long Live Poster Children!

Re: Caberet Metro show. This recording is exactly why I fell in love with PC in the first place. Fucking badass and driving! Thanks for sharing!
