Arcade Fire Neighborhood #1 (tunnels) Lyrics

Neighborhood #1 (tunnels) Lyrics

And if the snow buries my,

my neighborhood.

And if my parents are
crying

then I'll dig a tunnel

from my window to yours,

yeah a
tunnel from my window to yours.

You climb out the chimney

and meet
me in the middle,

the middle of the town.

And since there's no one
else around,

we let our hair grow long

and forget all we used to
know,

then our skin gets thicker

from living out in the snow.



You change all the lead

sleepin' in my head,

as the day
grows dim

I hear you sing a golden hymn.



Then we tried to
name our babies,

but we forgot all the names that,

the names we
used to know.

But sometimes, we remember our bedrooms,

and our
parent's bedrooms,

and the bedrooms of our friends.

Then we think
of our parents,

well what ever happened to them?!



You change
all the lead

sleepin' in my head to gold,

as the day grows dim,

I hear you sing a golden hymn,

the song I've been trying to sing



Purify the colors, purify my mind.

Purify the colors, purify my
mind,

and spread the ashes of the colors

over this heart of
mine!
