This place is trying to wash me
Of my identity.
I've worked so hard to build it,
Now they're taking it from me.
When I walk to the parking lot,
People always seem to stare.
They don't understand what I do
And they certainly don't care.
So let's get into my flying car.
We're gonna go, go, go,
We're gonna drive real far.
We're not gonna let this place tell us who we are.
Sitting in the room
In weary isolation.
I'm surrounded by people,
But they cause me such frustration.
But I know I can trust you,
Yeah I know you feel the same.
We're both sick of being pieces
In an overrated game.
So let's get into my flying car.
We're gonna go, go, go,
We're gonna drive real far.
We're not gonna let this place tell us who we are.
Break the snow globe, let's drive away.
We're gonna bask in the glory
Of the present day.
Who really gives a damn about what they say?
So let's get into my flying car.
We're gonna go, go, go,
We're gonna drive real far.
We're not gonna let this place tell us who we are.

in and out of focus

It was dark when I awoke,
And I remember how we last spoke,
And I was uneasy.
It seemed so fun last night,
But now it gives me such a fright.
Am I being misleading?
Driving through the dark
Trying to recall the spark,
Or is it a blaze?
You seem like a great girl,
But you've got me in a whirl.
Is this a passing phase?
I'd like to think I'm some virtuous saint,
But I'm proven wrong with the friendships I taint.
I don't want to lie or to break your heart,
But I can't tell if I want us together or apart.
It was so good on the phone,
But now I want to be alone.
This was not supposed to happen.
The longer I'm in this room,
The more it feels like a tomb.
I can feel the forestays slacken.
I try so hard to find
The girl I've conjured in my mind,
But she is missing.
Yet in bursts of ecstasy,
When you start to talk to me,
I want to keep fishing.
I'd like to think I'm some virtuous saint,
But I'm proven wrong with the friendships I taint.
I don't want to lie or to break your heart,
But I can't tell if I want us together or apart.
I wish I could see
The solution in front of me,
But it is elusive.
The answer's in and out of focus.
It fades as soon as it approaches,
And I remain clueless
And I remain clueless
And I remain clueless
And I have no clue.

Well I went for a walk
And got burnt in the rain.
And I decided to come home,
And nothing was the same.
You were the harvester,
And I was the crop.
And you're addicted, baby,
If you can't stop.
And I can feel my teeth fall out my head.
And my body breaks down and it ascends.
And I get mad cuz you don't call and
I should probably leave it all behind.
Leave it all behind.
These old boots can't carry
this luggage of shit anymore.
You're the only girl I can
Say I truly adore.
Fix me up, turn me around,
And then I'm not so bad.
You can catch my ghost smoking
On a lily pad.
And I can feel my teeth fall out my head.
And my body breaks down and it ascends.
And I get mad cuz you don't call and
I should probably leave it all behind.
Leave it all behind.
Leave it all behind.

I'm not even sure
If I have the strength to write the words
That I'm trying to say,
And that's ok.
It seems a waste of time
Because you're moving on with your life
And I haven't changed.
I'm not rearranged.
And I know that it wouldn't help
If I told you how I feel.
I wear my emotions on my sleeve,
I guess it's my Achilles' Heel.
And I know that you're happiest
When you're spending life with him,
And I don't want to interrupt
True love on a simple whim.
Oh, we're so close, but you feel so far away.
The time we spent together
Was the greatest feeling ever
And now it's gone.
Time moved along.
I've tried to shoot my shot,
But lightning won't be caught
Twice in a row.
I'll have to grow.
And I know that it wouldn't help
If I told you how I feel.
I wear my emotions on my sleeve,
I guess it's my Achilles' Heel.
And I know that you're happiest
When you're spending life with him,
And I don't want to interrupt
True love on a simple whim.
Oh, we're so close, but you feel so far away.
And I know that it wouldn't help
If I told you how I feel.
I wear my emotions on my sleeve,
I guess it's my Achilles' Heel.
And I know that you're happiest
When you're spending life with him,
And I don't want to interrupt
True love on a simple whim.
