It's the feeling I get When I see my own breath, reminds me I'm alive And my hooded sweatshirt skin that I've been living in blends into the night and all this love is only breathing in Do you see it in my eyes?

12:09 The train to Trenton's right on time but I'm still waiting for my ego to arrive A dollar five A poor man asks and I oblige Here's to my money leaving me before my mind and it's not hard to keep the engine clean when you don't drive and it's not hard to keep the engine clean when you don't drive Aching for what keeps us from feeling It's such a peaceful burn 1:03 The platform has become a...

Waves of promise are spilling over out of the cauldron that you once spoke from now your words have become a jukebox the songs recycled you beg for quarters but I can't hear you you're too loud for me and when you whisper, well you just bore me but just keep talking I need the company and maybe someday I'll tell you just what you've become But you'll never love what you become 'cause you can't...

the time has come to close the door behind you and start the clock I'm parked out front so pull the suitcase to the car, throw it in the trunk and we've been so patient we've waited such a long time for another year and we've got the scars so it's time to take the clutch, throw it into gear now I'm on the road feeling hungry but I want that time again and we're on the road feeling lucky but I ...

Long Island sun It wakes me up, sneaks from the east into my window up above and I wish it were you crawling through that pane for that I'd trade this sunshine for a week of rain It's a small world, or so they so But mostly it feels large When we walk through these deserts of sorrow Waiting for the next mirage On Southern Parkway, There's a traffic jam Thousands of cars are making love while t...
