lyrics

I'm lying weightless against the racing world,
while all of the colors swirl,
and suddenly I'm tie-dyed.
I'm separating the paintings through backyard daydreams.
They're never as bright as they once seemed.
And all of my friends are in fast cars.

There's a voice in the air, impatient and scared, he says,
"I can't help you out.
There's an injured girl who wants to be a writer of policy,
there's a boy out cold who's gonna be a doctor someday."

All the world is waking up to find
the streets are overflowing with headlights.
And I swear to god I'm sober but I still pull over.
I come to on the highway and there's glass all around me.

What an album this is! 14 songs-long, and I can fully understand why the band would have struggled to leave any of them off. This is a massively enjoyable journey through various styles of punk. I swear I even hear pedal steel in there somewhere. davekillcountysmith
