lyrics

Driving, windows down with our arms out...
Winding forearm sine waves on the 5 South...

Cold as last chance,
wish I didn’t feel so empty-handed.
Four backs to back,
gladly taking everything for granted.
Freelance band hacks,
man we could really clear a room out.
Try to think back:
there was nothing stopping you from leaving.

Making it up as we’re going along ,
the shaking of hands and the breaking of falls.
The shittiest fish in the smallest of ponds
bites down with his tongue out...

Sad like slow dance,
wish it didn’t feel so heavy-handed.
Fucked at first glance:
splashes are ripples from a distance.
Was it so bad?
Still saving the box of stupid candids?
Try to think back:
there was nothing stopping you from leaving.

Making it up as we’re going along ,
the shaking of hands and the breaking of falls.
The shittiest fish in the smallest of ponds
bites down with his tongue out...

Driving, windows down with our arms out...
Winding forearm sine waves on the 5 South...

Never thought I ache for those moments.
Never thought I’d escape your performance.
