lyrics

Almost drove into the 405 divider,
Took too many scans to my right,
What unease projects onto me brighter,
Found its home nestled up tight,

The couple next to us made out for days,
Quickly learned to ignore my side,
Resting between godspeed and haste,
A sense of brevity might've sufficed,

A caustic wit drowned out the tension,
internally my insides were dry,
Bruce Dern took on his lone desire,
While bleakness reigned over mine

And I can't breathe,
Frankly, I'm past the need,

Unencumbered by this point in life,
It's no stretch to look out wide,
The scope of your laugh prized aside,
It took me a moment to resign,

Midwest planes bowed to misled gains,
A drive from Billings might take two days,
So what if I know how to drive the back way,
Your house only counts if I can stay,

If I had a chance and with it some stakes,
I'd hedge my bets to lay it down and stay,
But my guess is as good as any others,
Sometimes rested hearts still delay

I can see,
That's just as it should be,
And I can see,
Sometimes life just lets these things be
