Aaron West And The Roaring Twenties - Our Apartment Lyrics






I pictured our apartment
In the middle of Brooklyn
I pictured the bedroom
And how the floor's still a mess
Well, I pictured your office in mid-town Manhattan
I pictured you walking in, I bet you're late again
But your make-up's straight, and you're smiling
It's just like it's always been

I had lunch with your sister
And she told me it's over
That you're calling your lawyers, that you're not coming back
She says that she's sorry
Your whole family likes me
She don't know what you're thinking, but she knows that it's bad
So, I walked back home, turned the shower on
I let the washing machine turn the water cold

I'll read it over again—the lines of the note you left
I keep hoping that I'll forget
That the words changed while I slept
But I've got my doubts
You're staying at your parents house
Well I'm sleeping on the couch
I can't stand our bed without you

I found enough of your hairpins to build you a monument
A statue to loneliness. Breathe it in. Let it go
I caved a piece of the drywall in
Replaying the argument
I'm icing my swollen fist. It's a lie and this isn't a home, no, no
I'm just skin and bones
I broke my cell phone
Cause it won't fucking tell me when you're coming home

I'll read it over again—the lines of the note you left
I keep hoping that I'll forget
That the words changed while I slept
But I've got my doubts
You're staying at your parents house
Well I'm sleeping on the couch
I can't stand our bed without you

  2. F.... G....

    We think in abstract symbols that are the content of our consciousness. We learn to conscience and ritualize in society to fluidly act like members in it...”I’ll read it over and gain”

  3. s.... ....

    Absolutely one of my favorite music videos.

  4. N.... A....

    I broke my cell phone, ‘cause IT WON’T FUCKING TELL ME WHEN YOU’RE COMING HOME!

    I would dance to this at my wedding(if any girl is desperate enough to mary me) even though it is about dying love😂😂😂

  17. T.... P....

    The video doesn't do the music justice.

  18. E.... H....

    Still religiously listening to this

  27. F.... M....

    the actors in this video are gorgeous

  28. C.... G....

    he's literally got three guys with trumpets

  29. G.... H....

  30. C.... R....

    Didn't know this existed until today but I do know and that's all that matters.

  31. E.... A....

    I really love the vibrancy that the brass section adds to the Aaron West sound.

  32. c.... ....

    I want them to play at my wedding

  33. s.... ....

    Just noticed that’s Ace Enders on the banjo

  34. J.... M....

    Wow, the amish have really become modern.

  35. C.... ....

    I've never felt so cold and alone, but hey there's always tomorrow.

  36. M.... Z....

    *I'M NOT CRYING YOU'RE CRYING*

    R.... S....

    I'm pretty positive it is!

  39. S.... P....

    My newest fav band!

  40. J.... S....

    Listening to this in my apartment dancing by myself while making some tea

    Everyone

  46. B.... ....

    Fucks me up everytime

  47. B.... T....

    Did Soupy get divorced or something cause a lot of these songs seem to revolve around getting divorced and breaking up?

    B.... T....

    Aaron West is a character that Soupy created for this band. He is just in the headspace, writing from how the character feels.
    Soupy is still all good lol.

  48. J.... M....

    Is that ace Enders on banjo?

  49. J.... R....

    What brand of guitar does the guitar player have? Can't tell

  50. R.... L....

    B.... T....

  65. n.... y....

    You could drive a truck through the saxophonist's earlobes.

    n.... y....

    not you met that guy at a wonder years show. Even bigger in person

    n.... y....

    I actually tried, got stuck. Thanks a lot.

  66. P.... t....

    I like to imagine it's Diane's second wedding and they don't realize it's Aaron West 'till it's too late. The way he looks at her at the end and she cries/runs seems like they know each other.

    P.... t....

    Jayyburdd Pretty neat observation

    P.... t....

    i never realized that..

    P.... t....

    Yes! Awesome!

  70. A.... ....

    Dan's guitar is the best part of this video.

    A.... ....

    In case anyone is wondering, it's a Fender Hellcat Deluxe.

  71. J.... R....

    Lmao I love his reaction at the end like "I don't know why the hell she left- I was just singing. Dude don't blame me."

  72. G.... L....

    I WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH YOU

  73. C.... ....

    IS THAT ACE ENDERS IN THE BACK WAHT

    C.... ....

    I'LL GIVE YOU SOMETHING IN THE BACK AS WELL

  74. J.... B....

    Lyrics inspired by soupy

    Another restless night for me
    Laying in a room without AC
    Thinking things I shouldn't be thinking
    toss and turned, my will is breaking

    Get up, take a shot of poison
    Oh well, this shit ain't working
    Pass out, I don't dream nothing
    Somehow, its more comforting

    God rest my soul its been blazing so many lately
    Taking its toll you can tell by my face, I'm feeling weary
    Hear it from one, man I hear it from all
    forcing my hand and its all going to fall

    I take it day by day, not in a rush
    trying to keep it straight, mind is on hush
    Keep your vendettas, I just wanna chill
    ease off that dirty shit, we can be real

    I see the future, and its lookin good
    Thats what they told me, like some fortune cookie
    Say what I want, i'm not misunderstood
    barely alive and i'm feeling a drive

    I asked for this, didn't have to whisper it
    not a single word was uttered, a million pieces cluttered.
    Instantaneous. Midnight famous. Instantaneous. Midnight famous.

    S.... ....

    +Shutuptoplay Nice.

    S.... ....

    Pretty good!

  81. t.... ....

    ACE ENDERS!!!

  82. L.... W....

    The next album he does should be about him working to win Dianne back and what it's like when he finally does. I think this is an amazing story and Dan has made something extraordinary.

    L.... W....

    +Landon Williams Spoiler alert: it's not. Thinks haven't gotten happier for our friend Aaron, unfortunately, though the music is better than ever.

    I'm not gay, but I would totally let soupy tickle my no-no place with his beard

    D.... W....

    I've watched this video a thousand times and every time i do, i read this comment and laugh every time.

    D.... W....

    thats gay

    D.... W....

    @TheScrubDesigns You're gay

    D.... W....

    I am straight but I have a man crush on him. His voice is just...👌👌👌

    D.... W....

    DYL I think you’re gay bud. Nothing wrong with that.

  86. J.... F....

    can I make a deeper meaning guess?
    The "happy couple" seems so eager to dance to the music they thought was going to be played. so they dance and smile until the music changes. didn't expect that. But, just because they can't handle it, doesn't mean that no one else can! so others start dancing and are happy. But ultimately, everyone gets sick of it and sits down.
    Could this be a representation of life and couples? that when we start out, we're so happy and inlove. And once things change, and the happiness goes away.. you don't know if you can adapt. and you look around and everyone else is happy, but why aren't you? even though in reality, everyone goes through some hard times and eventually gets sick of the "music". You just have to make the best of it. The reason it ends the way it does is because that's how "Aaron West" sees it and how his relationship ended.
    Just looking into it and the musical genius that Dan Campbell is!

  87. T.... R....

    I DIDN'T ASK TO BE BORN

  88. S.... ....

    The instrument break at 1:10 is the best

  89. D.... W....

    All hail King Soupy!!!!!!

  90. B.... H....

    anyone know what kind of bass that is?

  91. K.... ....

    There's loads of connections to TWY songs ;) "Got lunch with your sister tomorrow." "Can't stand our bed without you." Connects to "Can't stand any dead space, empty beds bum me out"

    K.... ....

    Definitely. It's cool. It was probably impossible to not let the same emotions, stories, lines, etc. carry over from his actual life into the Aaron West story, It's what makes the art so special. <3

  92. D.... M....

    I must of misclicked on something. I'm... I'm not sure how I ended up here. And as a poor I am only light-moderate drunk. Uhhh, kudos? I guess? Neet sound.

  93. K.... G....

    I've never had anyone to come home to or anyone waiting for me. Even if I did and then have it ripped away, I'm cool enough to move on and understand that my happiness comes from within. You've gotta share what you've got not depend on what they have..…..

    K.... G....

    +Kyle Gilbert That's really easy until it's not, my dude. Empty space isn't empty until it was full in the first place.

  94. J.... S....

    I would kill to have them play at my wedding

  95. T.... ....

    :( coz this is depressing :(

  96. C.... D....

    Ha - you'd be amazed at the songs you get asked to play at weddings. People don't listen to the lyrics. We've had to change the words of some songs at times because they are all wrong for a wedding - if auntie heard the words she'd faint! People get hooked on the chorus and have never really heard the lyrics in between!

  97. B.... ....

    Anyone else notice that the sax player was the same guy who toured with FYS spring/summer 2015?

  98. D.... T....

    Can soupy play at my wedding?

    D.... T....

    Literally me when I was watching this

    D.... T....

    We could. (;

  99. s.... s....

    this song ruined my life

  100. A.... S....

    I've seen that sax player before. he was with The Wonder Years in the 2014 fall tour with TSSF and Modern Baseball. He also toured this year with Four Year Strong on TSSF spring tour. Whats his name?

    A.... S....

    Can't think of his name but he's Twy's tour manager. He also played in a band called We Are the Union. And he also plays saxophone on Hey Thanks by the Wonder Years!
