lyrics

Growing tired of the cold blue city
Rush around just to find me sittin’
Toxic plumbers, mailroom drummers
Creepin’ on the stands
Pushing us through the turnstiles dizzy
Catch some breath and I’m finally peering up
From improper nouns

We’ll buy money from the serpentines
Just to notice what we’ve got entwined

I’ve had enough of life without meaning
Twiddling thumbs just to keep me from dreaming
Let’s start the ride, no more time left scheming
Leave the mess behind, yeah darling
Leave the rest behind

Come along and we’ll flee the gritty
Give away any claims and rearings
Taco orders, mile markers
Fillin’ up our dash
Pause your eyes from the constant spinning
Up and down all the towers in our dust
That we won’t become

We’ll grift careless tides to sweep aside
Any waves emboldened that we find

I’ve had enough of life without meaning
Twiddling thumbs just to keep me from dreaming
Let’s start the ride, no more time left scheming
Leave the mess behind, yeah darling
Leave the rest behind
