lyrics

They're turning up the lights, your friends have disappeared
They've played their finale, there's nothing for you here.
You've milked every moment, like oil from the shale,
there's nothing left but memories, the backwash in the rail.

The same old faces stumble the salted streets
to take their places at all the same old seats.
It's 8 PM, but it's looking like last call.
There's nothing left to see, except for their withdrawal.

I've run the bases,
you're goddamn right I feel a little wronged,
this nauseous stasis,
you've missed your flight, you're right where you belong.

There's a lease on your emotions, with no security
but the dust will never settle enough for you to see
That every road is open, that every corner's free,
so as long as you are broken, you may as well leave.
