Hey Marseilles Lyrics

The city streets have more than we
Could ever want or need
We'll take our march to countrysides
Where real men do bleed

They say it's all been done before
Never been done right
We'll read the books we set aside
We will set our sights

The trains can track the lives we've made
Through wired window panes
Buildings tall, scream at the sky
Freeways freed away

I'll set my post to west coast time
The rhythm that it makes
Wish you long and loving lives
Free from drought and

Rainfall
Wash me away to small town borders and walls
Go now, we'll have enough if we can have it all

Rainfall
Wash me away to small town borders and walls
Go now, we'll have enough if we can have it all

Rainfall
Wash me away to small town borders and walls
Go now, we'll have enough if we can have it all

Hey Marseilles is a musical group from Seattle, WA, that formed in the summer of 2006 after Nick and Philip forced Matt Bishop to write a song to an accordion riff and play it live for a work party downtown. The current lineup consists of seven members performing on guitars, cello, viola, accordion, piano, bass, glockenspiel, ukulele, mandolin, drums, and a plethora of rhythmic accessories. The music can be described as indie-folk, and has been compared to that of The Decemberists, Devotchka, and Bright Eyes.
