You Moved Away
from Thank You for Today by Death Cab for Cutie
lyrics
You sold your records by the pile
For they were only yours for a while
You placed your furniture in the yard
And it was gone within the hour
When you moved away
All your friends came over and you told them what to take
When you moved away
Everyone thought it was a mistake
You mopped the floors and filled the cracks
To get your security deposit back
You closed your account at bank
You checked your tires and filled the tank
When you moved away
All your friends got drunk and one by one begged you to stay
When you moved away
They all felt irrationally betrayed
Since you moved away
I walk past your vacant apartment almost every day
When you moved away
You left this town with such an empty space
For they were only yours for a while
You placed your furniture in the yard
And it was gone within the hour
When you moved away
All your friends came over and you told them what to take
When you moved away
Everyone thought it was a mistake
You mopped the floors and filled the cracks
To get your security deposit back
You closed your account at bank
You checked your tires and filled the tank
When you moved away
All your friends got drunk and one by one begged you to stay
When you moved away
They all felt irrationally betrayed
Since you moved away
I walk past your vacant apartment almost every day
When you moved away
You left this town with such an empty space

This is undoubtedly my single favorite album of all time. It feels like such a perfect culmination of all the themes and ideas Fleet Foxes has been working with since 2008. It answers many of the questions found on both Helplessness Blues and Crack-Up, and represents an incredible maturation and growth in Robin Pecknold's perspective. Their other albums are certainly masterpieces, but this, in my opinion, is their magnum opus. I doubt it will be recognized as such in its time.
