lyrics

Devout static eyes, undercurrent right on time I can feel the pull
Left the fever home, a magnetic highway drone and a second wind
But why'd you go so soon? Spooked and your eyelids bruised
Was it something you saw?
Architecture bleeding out, you think just to think out loud
It's motion and law

But heaven's won't you step outside, there's something in my car you need to see
There's something on the stereo, the disappointment of the century
And already we can feel the sun setting in the street

A sentimental phrase, a dolled up sequential haze i've been locked in for days
The sounds escaping through our doors cracks were dripping youth
Held my backbone in place
We sat tight at the top of the stairs, lives glued together
It's all in a backdraft

A saturated bliss, a punchline to cross our lips
we're a long way from home
Retired backyard friends, cool dusk, electric fence
I forget their address
But why'd you go so soon, spooked and your eyelids bruised
Was it something you saw?

But heaven's won't you step outside, there's something in my car you need to see
There's something on the stereo, the disappointment of the century
And already we can feel the sun setting in the street
