So very stoked to submit this song to the Tiny Desk Contest-
Hotel by
Robb Donker
Take my head in your hands
and I'll watch the words
fall from your lips
the iron gate is so cold
it cries out
when we open it
this is the start of
this is the start of
this is the start of
the end
We wore our smiles
like movie stars
as those Polaroids
blistered in the sun
The hotel feels
petrified
the curtains burned
so goddamn fast
this is the start of
this is final song
this is what went wrong
this is the start of
the end
