lyrics

You grind out the days slipping and out of lanes like you're good at it. You flinch away from the horns and the scorn of the folks behind the wheels catching feels. You're just trying to get somewhere and everybody keeps getting in your way.

You don't exactly remember when. Perhaps it was a good book. Perhaps it was a friend, but you've been disabused of the glamor of the road, the highway's charms and their associated harms. You feel a pedestrian heart and all pedestrians are brothers, putting one foot in front of the other.

It's a road. It's a sign. It's a lane. You'll be fine. Headlights on and your foot on the gas. You can't have acceleration without mass.

You're watching the lights you're watching the lines you're watching the bumpers you're watching the signs. It's a beautiful place, but you can't stay.
