Line Down 02:32
The road was closed On the way to Try and see you A line was down and a current ran through My blood and tissue Bones and sinews On the way to try and see you The road was closed Yeah the weather’s fine down here But the end is surely near And all these sunny skies They don't make me feel alright And if there is another side I guess that kind of thing would be fine But I can't help to believe We’ll be left out here to freeze (Left out here, left out here Left out here is my greatest fear Nothing comes when you're nowhere near Nothing comes when you're left out here)

Among the dampened leaves and top soil It smells like musk and mold and motor oil This time of year was never like this Now these days are different A sickly film across the windshield The way the droplets on my glasses feel It's unnatural for December But we voted it here We've got it all We solved the problems Excess and revelry Are bountiful for us We made it work We built a system Bad days are over We gave them what they want (I miss the way that it was cleansing A new surface over everything Conceal the cracks and glass and potholes At least for just a season) The light’s at dusk and I prefer it there With cooler hues and dimmer atmospheres If it rains until oblivion at least I got to see it

Blue Volvo 03:54
We've all been there before We've all opened up that door We stand there on the edge Peer into the great abyss Thank god for deja vu It led me right back to you Thank god its tinted red Like it had something new I like you for you alone When I fall through the floor you'll be there to pick me up and take me home I enjoy pondering the weight of everything Yeah I wonder how we'll be when we stumble into our 50’s Yeah it's running on what we secure That machine that runs steady and pure Like that station wagon we had as a kid 400,000 miles. 1986. I'm full of powder blue I'm full of me and you Baby we got the style Show me that birthday smile Yeah it's running on what we secure That machine that runs steady and pure That precise German engine design A metaphor that stands the test of time Oh I think we're doin ok I got some rust along the edges but I'll keep running before I decay Yeah I think we’ll make it through Don't leave me sitting on a curb, give me a jump, I'll prove myself to you I'm full of powder blue I'm full of me and you Baby we got the style Show me that birthday smile I'm full of pink and blue (I know what you don't know I'll go where you won't go I know what you don't know)

do you wanna slide out of this shitty dive? let's get out of here the neon signs depress me i wish we could fly out to somewhere tonight the air outside is cooler in cities close to water i know we'll find time to hide away from the unkind i know we'll find time to lie away the day inside when the glow goes swimming in the air at night and the water droplets slow into a still it's a quiet i don't know gives me time to see my thinking artificial light source blinking like a beacon do you wanna slide out of your shitty life? get out of here repeated lines depress me i wish we could fly out to somewhere tonight the air outside is cooler in cities close to water do you wanna slide out of your shitty life? get out of here repeated lines depress me so what did you find? something to pass the time? the sky outside is darker the nights are getting longer

Tollbooth operator, Gary, Indiana Could you do me a favor and pinch me if I'm dreaming? On accelerator, off the exit ramp and Could you do me a favor and pinch me if I'm dreaming? Migraine headache blind A trip across state lines The factories purge out some putrid smelling sky Half stoned against the glass I hope this feeling lasts We’ll find some common ground under the snow blown grass Yeah the fire feels good We brought more than we should Let's cap this nightmare off just trying to feel good Then I looked up and I saw my fate Spelled out in the stars across the lake The smog rolled in and I couldn't make out what it said, whatever Something about knowing how to lose Something about beauty’s always true I turned my back to head home And I said goodnight on my own

Banbury 04:29
Of all the roaches and camouflage What you picked apart was a head mirage Absolutely small and disgusting 100% vile and distrupted Curb your smile, curb your eyes, curb your trash When the things that you want to take back Are in a fire in Patrick's yard on Banbury Watching particles of it float away Realize, metasize Pray to something, be contrived Hold the wheel straight Start waking up late Close your eyes, it's all right Into bed with a better mind Into step with a day behind Introducing myself to myself Hello friend it's good to see you again
