Modern Baseball - Play Ball! Lyrics






These words were thrown together
When I still had my faith in hand
Kept it in my back pocket
With the change I had to spare

Swim through the skies when it’s night
Let the stars be my sea breeze
I love when the record echoes
Reminds me of the trees

But I shouldn’t have to say this to you
No, You know how to live life

This compilation of sayings and tunes
Means everything to me now
I cut me open
But you did all the pouring out

I’ve discovered more and more
Of this world that I’ve been calling mine
I don’t care what it takes
Blood, sweat or all my time because

I shouldn’t have to say this to you
No you, know how to live life

And I shouldn’t have to sing all these tunes
No, you make me feel alive

I’m not one to point fingers
But you got me in a bind
Ripping through all our nights
All choruses aside

Swim through the skies when it’s night
Let the stars be my sea breeze
I love when the record echoes

    i really do be missing mobo though :(

  2. i.... ....

    I came here a bit late and on the other side of the planet. Oh well I'm here anyways.

  3. E.... R....

    this hits

  4. T.... �....

    This is the longest band I’ve still liked. That’s not worded great (I’ve listened to them longer than any other band) and I’ve still watching there 6 year old videos. To be fair I started to listen to them not to long after Holy Ghost cane out though. Also that album came out on my brother’s birthday okay so if anyone reads this, you’re cool.

  5. M.... H....

    They're actually insane

    Why does this have any dislikes? 7 is waay to much.

    T.... �....

  8. F.... J....

    I miss them :(

  9. D.... 1....

    i freaking love this band whos on the same page as me?

    D.... 1....

    Yes. They’re like the best band ever and idek if they’re my favorite but I have to say that. I love them and they’re definitely are admittedly the best musical artist or band.

  10. M.... E....

    I'm so glad I listened to you guys on Spotify!
    The the depressing up somehow positive upbeat tone of your guys' music describes my life too well

  11. D.... V....

    Hey I'm sure I've seen some other "Rooftop session" videos, where Jake keeps joking on and says like "Hey we're Guns N Roses" and plays Sweet Child O' Mine
    Though I can't seem to find them. Anyone know what's up with that? :S

    D.... V....

    Danny Vasey 2 years late but it’s their Altered Course videos, I’m pretty sure this is their only rooftop sessions video

  12. V.... N....

    i swear to you guys, your band is the best thing i've encountered with. And trust me, i hear a lot of things. Keep up the good work!!!!

    V.... N....

    Same for me. I like a lot of bands, but MOBO will forever be my favorite.

  13. k.... d....
