about

contains a lyrical interpolation of "to her door" by paul kelly.

lyrics

Wheels turning gravel against the ground
As the driver asks if I'm homeward bound
But it's not where my heart is anymore
Shaking in my seat in a silvertop
Singing from the south and getting out of dodge
I still go leaps and bounds to my door

There's a hole where my shadow used to be
And I fear that it might encompass me
Because I made my bed
But can't fall asleep in it
What if I don't wake
What if I don't wake

Heard a voice coming from another room
I saw the clouds gathering against the moon
And the sky blankly stared back again
Nights like this make me pathetic, man
I don't even know how this all began
But I've seen how it ends, and I know when

There's a hole burning right through me
And it's swallowing the cities and the seas
Now I've turned my back
But can't look around again
What if I don't wake
What if I don't wake

It's a long drive
I've a lot to think about
I'm an inconsistent narrator
In an inconsistent narrative
If I lived here, I'd be home
But I don't, I'm still alone

Just lingering at bus-stops
Just standing by a streetlight
Just waiting on my train ride
Just falling by the wayside
Just running for the next flight
Just waking in the sunshine
Just feeling next to nothing
Just hoping to feel something
More than this

Hoping to feel something more than this.
