Just Yet

I beat the traffic once again
Kept the search up for my best friend
I tried to skip the stoplights
But every last one's blinking red

I was running and cheating
And hiding out in Memphis til
The clock strike eleven
By midnight halfway to Brazil

And every day surprises
Wondering what page is next

But I'll sit up on this cross
No I don't mind letting you be the boss
Cause I ain't done feeling guilty just yet

Salt dripping out of my face
Gets me every time and place
I never thought that I needed a brace
Until the legs can't be stood on

And all that your foot's on
Turned into a pile to
Be swept up and put upon
All because i can't tell the truth

And September's coming soon
That means another temporary move

So I'll pack up my two bags
I'm sure there's things that I might forget
But I ain't giving up trying just yet

Blizzard rolled in yesterday
A stop-motion anime
Was like dropping a great white shark
On the Great White Way

It was nine inches of silences
Gets so hard to shovel that stuff
A good dose of violences
The kind that puts your guard right back up

When everyday there's trouble
Living a losing bet

But I'll sit out in this cold
If you look close see I'm not alone
Cause I ain't done holding on to you just yet
No I ain't done holding on to you just yet
