Sunny Drive West

Aquí no ha pasada nada
Y, y como sé que no me vás a denunciar
Hey, anybody hear me

Well it's funny how you think that you're alive
You're just waking up from a long flight
It was sunny when you learned to drive
Drive it in your arm till you're all white
And just drive
Get away fast
90 on the dash
30 in cash
No, there'll never be a right time
Run away in the nighttime

Splinters of my skeleton leak from my eye
I can't sit still and I don't know why
I would kill for a plate of the slate blue sky
The familiar taste and the lain-awake-all-night
Late-again begging
Deadweight dredging
Make-believe friends off the ledge I'm edging
I soar with the fletching
Etching my veins
Sore from retching on the westbound train
The very best days and the very best fall
The auburn of the trees and the split in my skull
In the lull where I sing to myself
"I'm real just like everybody else"
In the doldrums drumming on the walls
I can't eat cause the concrete has severed where he crawls
Never leave the box cause there's monsters in the halls
Choking down stilts I'm ten feet tall
Broken at the hilt and I swallow it all

Storefronts glowing and alone
Forgotten everything I've ever known
Round the corner and I'm almost home
Seventeen years I've been living in a dome
Gutter doll

Well they never said they needed you alive
And I'm sorry for the strong light
You know I tried to cover up your eyes
But you just can't give in without a fight
It's alright there's another world for you
Where everyone adores you
The stars will never gore you
But it'll never be the right time
Run away in the nighttime

The leaves are the color of the sun and the world is too bright
Just get it over with
Why won't you open your eyes
Are you afraid of me?

Seed-slumped speed bumps blare like a horn
Bound to the tracks like sheaths of black corn
The moths have yarn and the fields have ears
And they burst like a dam in the flood of the years
When he comes around, death is all I can think
Wait till no one's around and guzzle all I can drink
And I lost my head and I don't know where
And I don't even care

I'm so sorry, please
Oh, what have I done

It was sunny when you learned to drive
Drive yourself madder than a dogfight
Quit your running, you've been hunted for a lifetime
Blinded by the sun, you had no choice but run, run
Get away fast
90 on the dash
Eyes downcast
And there'll never be a right time
Run away in the nighttime

Drive, before he realizes you survived

Well it's funny how you think that you're alive
You're just waking up from a long night
Now you stumble down Sunny Drive
Waiting for the world to be alright
And just drive, get away fast
90 on the dash, dirty and slashed
No there'll never be a right time
Run away in the nighttime
Well the tongues are coming out to writhe
Dragging you away to a lost life
And the sun has drawn away the tide
Leave the moon to crumble in the starlight
And the poison, it's breaching my skull
Can't move at all
Can't feel at all
And there'll never be a right time
Run away in the nighttime

In the nighttime

Don't you worry about the boy next door
He'll off himself before you know it
And he'll leave you to decide if he was a monster or a poet
And I'll leave you with a cavern in the dome on the steps of your childhood home
And I, I'll teach you to fly
If you tell me why
Why, why, why, why you're all alone

Low tide Rosing
Cyanide dozing

Storefronts glowing and alone
I've forgotten everything I've ever known
Round the corner and I'm almost home
Seventeen years, I
It's alright there's another world for you
Where everyone adores you
The stars will never bore you
But it'll never be the right time
Run away in the nighttime

I, oh I, I tried to make it right
I kiss the glass and murmur to the night
She's gone, she's gone, she's slipping from my mind
I fall forwards in fluttering lines
I begged the saw to cut her from my life
I loathed the lies in her false eyes
I know, I know that doesn't make it right
But oh how deep and serene the sky since I

I haven't seen her in a long time
I hope she's doing alright since I passed by
I face my problems head-on with a hunting knife
Who fucking cares if I waste another futile life
Swallowing streetlights and running around
The flatlands like a madman, and what have I found
I'll erase this mess to the edge of the world and when I find her there I'll hold her
And it'll be colder, colder
Than any winter you've ever known

Please, I've been trapped in here for months
I've been trapped in here
For months
For months
For months
For months
For months
