Thursday - White Bikes [Official Music Video]

#ThursdayBand #GeoffRickly #EmoThursday

“White Bikes started with an idea from Norman Brannon, who came to us from one of our favorite bands of all time, Texas is the Reason, and you can hear his distinctive style all over this song. It might be the first true example of our “Thursday is the Reason” era. We fulfilled a life long dream of recording it in Berlin’s famous Hansa studios, where Stuart Richardson had the idea to produce the track like a nostalgic, upbeat, summery version of War All the Time. The lyrics deal with the loss of a dear friend, who was one of the first people I ever played music with. Before he disappeared on his bicycle, he asked me to meet him but I never made it to the meeting spot. Now whenever I see a white bike on the side of the road I think of him.” - Geoff Rickly // Thursday

“WHITE BIKES” - LYRICS:
White bikes on the side of the road
Last night I heard a crash on 22
And you were never the same
Did you forget your name as the pedals turned and the road unspooled ahead?
Some days I still see your name on the side of the crosstown bus
It’s like something’s looking after us 
You asked me to look for you on the overpass near 22

I’m waiting, I’m waiting for you to come around again (turn the radio up or how will I ever know?)
Why am I still waiting for you to come around again? (The radio’s on, how can you turn it down?)

White bikes on the side of the road
Last night I had a dream about your house. 
It was never the same
Since they threw out your bed 
And changed the locks
And told everyone you were dead. 
You asked me to look for you
On the overpass near 22

I’m waiting, I’m waiting for you to come around again (turn the radio up or how will I ever know?)
Why am I still waiting for you to come around again? (The radio’s on, how can you turn it down?)

How can you turn it down
How can you turn it down
When the flowers turn in a purple shock 
How can you turn it down
How can you turn it down
How can you turn it down
When the neon lights make you feel like god
How can you turn it down
How can you turn it down
How can you turn it down
When your friends are here and the music’s loud
How can you turn it down
When your song comes on 
How can you turn it down?

I’m waiting, I’m waiting for you to come around again (turn the radio up or how will I ever know?)
Why am I still waiting for you to come around again? (Turn it up, turn it up, turn the radio up or how will I ever know?)
Am I still waiting?
