You Won't Need Those Where You're Going - The New Pornographers

My love, she jumped from the top of her game

A lover’s leap, never went there again

Said «You're free to look back, but I’ll keep going

You know we built this thing on the not knowing»

We’re raw footage, still unedited

It’s awkward, rough and repetitive

But it could win awards when and if it’s shown

But you won’t need those where you’re going

My love, she climbed on the roof of the car

Said «It will be my stage if it’s not gonna start»

Tossed the keys as the thing started rolling

Said «You won’t need those where you’re going»

Took some found footage from an unfinished man

Made a narrative leap through some sleight of hand

There will be buzz and heat when and if it’s shown

But you won’t need those where you’re going

We won’t need those where we’re going

You won’t need those where you’re going
