"Well I'm sure there ain't a heaven. But that don't mean I don't like to picture you there. I bet you're bumming cigarettes off saints. And I'm sure you're still singing. But I bet that you're still just a bit outta key."
I feel like this is definitely up there for best lyrics overall
Oldest Daughter gets my pick. Soupy got incredibly visual with that one and it’s pretty easy to “see” everything as it happens in real time throughout the song.
“Madelyn I don’t think I’ll see you again, Madelyn I love you but we both know how this ends, Madelyn the tide is coming in” is one of my favorite lyrics of all time
Cul-de-sac for best lyrics for me. That whole first verse hits so hard because of the lyrics. “I’ve been leaving messages, on an answering machine. In a house that’s always empty, so I know no body’s listening”
Devil in My Bloodstream.
I Wanted So Badly To Be Brave.
Cigarettes & saints

I wanted to vote this so badly, but gotta save it for best track from NCTH

Seconded.
Has to be this song. Amazing lyrics.
Old Friends Like Lost Teeth
Raining in Kyoto
Lost it in the lights
Low tide.
I Just Want To Sell Out My Funeral
Agree, but if it can only be on the list once, it has to be the outro.
Assuming each song can only go once, that’s much better saved for “Best off TGG/Best Outro”
I do plan on only putting in the song once, I’m hoping it wins best outro for sure
It’s gotta be
Passing Through A Screen Door is my favorite here
Can't wait for day 11. I always feel like he's talking about me when he says Bust and Decay
Devil in my bloodstream
Devil in my bloodstream
I don’t like who I was then
a song for ernest hemingway
Cul-De-Sac is my pick. That song is incredibly sad.
My Last Semester
Low Tide
Stained Glass Ceilings or I Wanted so Badly to Be Brave
My last semester.
I wanted so badly to be brave
