lyrics

Made another lap around the sun
Now I’m back
Blowing wishes off of dripping wax
This whole room is filling up with voices
A mess of jumbled noises
Pressed against my face

Moon so bright
that it looks like only one headlight works
on a car that’s stranded
Broke down in the middle of the tracks
(Headlight works on the…works on the)
Train of thought pulls the brakes
Just escaped

All those years ago today
I awoke into this world
Not a clue who I was, or why I came
Raising glasses, spilling words
Intoxicated slurs
Staggered by my age

The night is old
So I will crawl into bed
Curl my knees and start it up again
(I never know what to make of my…)
Dreams pull me into orbit
Push me not to forfeit who I’m meant to be

Moon so bright
that it looks like only one headlight works
on a car that’s stranded
Broke down in the middle of the tracks
(Headlight works on the…works on the)
Train of thought pulls the brakes
Just escaped

All those years ago today
I awoke into this world
Not a clue who I was, or why I came
Raising glasses, spilling words
Intoxicated slurs
Staggered by my age
