[00:00.50] |
|
[00:36.71] |
In twos and threes the stinging rain falls on this car |
[00:40.78] |
Counting time with the lights blinking like a dying star |
[00:44.75] |
I'll turn it out soon so I focus on where I go |
[00:48.60] |
Pretending to be asleep on a train is hard to forego |
[00:52.56] |
But tree branches wave and telephone poles compare notes |
[00:56.49] |
What passes by the window disappears at our next thought |
[01:00.79] |
The abandoned buildings they don't realize they are all alone |
[01:04.44] |
Reaching out to keep the pieces of what they've all become |
[01:08.50] |
With the heat of the sun forcing moss and ivy to grow |
[01:12.52] |
Across the faces, rushing backwards, giving all they owe |
[01:16.48] |
To circumnavigate their frames and join hands with cracks on walls |
[01:20.74] |
And make us honest about from where we came and head towards |
[01:24.70] |
The sun it flickers and fades setting to the left of my arm |
[01:28.51] |
The lovely half lit silhouetted hills now hard to discern |
[01:32.46] |
As if they've all given up like old cars in junkyards |
[01:36.48] |
And all the air that the train displaced won't come to harm |
[01:40.45] |
Simply acting as a means to spread some forgotten seeds |
[01:44.39] |
That long ago would find their way home by some other means |
[01:48.99] |
|
[01:50.35] |
And the air that I displace won't even remember my name |
[01:58.16] |
Or any other details of the lines of my face |
[02:05.17] |
|
[02:05.77] |
And the air that I displace won't even remember my name |
[02:13.98] |
Or any other details of the lines of my face |
[02:20.90] |
Passing by a line of crows on power lines that wait for |
[02:24.46] |
A something that we all don't attempt to express anymore |
[02:28.47] |
Feeling the pull to find a way to what we would call home |
[02:32.48] |
Giving thought to, things I felt as I wait on the platform |
[02:36.59] |
Evading the subjects that are constantly on my mind |
[02:40.54] |
While circling above them like clouds at the same time |
[02:44.51] |
The wheels sometimes falter and scrape on the tracks as I drift |
[02:48.31] |
To all the things that settle to bottom that I try to keep hid |
[02:52.44] |
Like the dirt that settles in the river once we've all passed |
[02:56.38] |
That no one will mention unless they've been on the same path |
[03:00.44] |
Trying not to let the weight of those thoughts drag you down |
[03:04.46] |
Like a tree letting it's leaves go after holding too long |
[03:08.28] |
The heavy weight of the last few turns that the engine takes |
[03:12.33] |
Through the windows the faint smell of diesel fumes that pervade |
[03:16.47] |
Signal that we've made our way close to the station at hand |
[03:20.21] |
And all the indecipherable things I've tried to comprehend |
[03:24.27] |
Sometimes it's easier to pretend to sleep on a train |
[03:28.24] |
Rather than pay attention to what your thoughts might contain |
[03:32.54] |
And the air that I displace won't even remember my name |
[03:36.84] |
Or any other details of the lines of my face |
[03:40.75] |
And the air that I displace won't even remember my name |
[03:44.56] |
Or any other details of the lines of my face |
[03:48.79] |
And the air that I displace won't even remember my name |
[03:52.74] |
Or any other details of the lines of my face |
[03:57.72] |
|
[03:58.49] |
The abandoned buildings they don't realize they are all alone |
[04:02.50] |
Reaching out to keep the pieces of what they've all become |
[04:06.52] |
With the heat of the sun forcing moss and ivy to grow |
[04:10.43] |
Across the faces, rushing backwards, giving all they owe |
[04:14.42] |
To circumnavigate their frames and join hands with cracks on walls |
[04:18.47] |
And make us honest about from where we came and head towards |
[04:22.61] |
The sun it flickers and fades setting to the left of my arm |
[04:26.36] |
The lovely half lit silhouetted hills now hard to discern |
[04:30.41] |
As if they've all given up like old cars in junkyards |
[04:34.67] |
And all the air that the train displaced won't come to harm |
[04:38.39] |
Simply acting as a means to spread some forgotten seeds |
[04:42.29] |
That long ago would find their way home by some other means |
[04:46.51] |
The abandoned buildings they don't realize they are all alone |
[04:50.46] |
Reaching out to keep the pieces of what they've all become |
[04:54.46] |
With the heat of the sun forcing moss and ivy to grow |
[04:58.41] |
Across the faces, rushing backwards, giving all they owe |
[05:02.46] |
To circumnavigate their frames and join hands with cracks on walls |
[05:06.64] |
And make us honest about from where we came and head towards |
[05:11.68] |
