We measure speed in days and mark my eyelids
Yeah, it's the way you want me
On the blue bike, crumpled overnight
Comes tearing out the rearview
Don't let me run away
We're just trucks on the interstate
Just driving through outer space
Let's burn up in this heat forever
You wanna rip and roll and wrap your mind in all the common problems
When you step out, you step alone
Your gaze is on the see-through
Don't let me run away
We're just trucks on the interstate
Just driving through outer space
Let's burn up in this heat forever

To tell a tale it was a good day after all
Been so productive, stumbled right out of the fall
Run it back to the sound of your youth, let it bury you
What you set out for is waiting behind doors of clad iron history books
You need just what you overlook so you lose the whole thing

Feeling light, my head's alright
But my bones, they feel so lived in
Passing clouds, every hour
Shoot out your astronaut skin
Do you, like it up here?
You could return any day of the year
Get so far, raise the bar
For science and progress today
Jolly lived, on a star
Was happy in every way
Do you, like it up here?
You could return any day of the year
Do you, love that old view?
Kicking up dust, you're the finer few
Cause you owe me, what you promised
Nothing worse than, being honest
Tell me straight now, did you cause this mess?
Do you, like it up here?
You could return any day of the year
Do you, love that old view?
Kicking up dust, you're the finer few

Wake me up
I must be dreaming again
Just my luck
I must be dreaming, neon lit screaming again
She knows all your hiding places
Tells you who's a fake
Laughing in their silly faces
Now, you stumble back to bed
Does Nancy know the way?
Follow the sunny sea
It starts to get to me
Do we deserve this?
Give a fuck
I must be dreaming again
Get so unstuck
Give me some of that January high

Hear the sound, of the silent cold abyss
Just unplug, your shattered mind for this
So you fly, through the sunbeam
Every night, it's the same dream
So you fly, through the sunbeam
I saw you shining, burning your gold
Open up, these noises go away
Later on, it's just the drugs all kicking in at once
So you fly, through the sunbeam
Every night, it's the same dream
As you fly, through the sunbeam
I saw you shining, burning your gold

Drifter

I would walk, on blistered soles for weeks
A drifter
I could talk, to kind folks that we meet
A drifter
Funny when you get home, turn your work in
Broken down piano, teach me something
I could drive, forgotten highway roads
A drifter
I could find, someone to take me home
I'm not a drifter, no
I'm not a drifter just a barely burning sun
Funny when you get home, turn your work in
Broken down piano, teach me something

Beacon

Never felt like a piece of anything real
Could tumble down to this
We got something to chase, we got what it takes
We're blowing right through this
Spend the night just talking
You're giving me a headrush
Right in my brain
Giving me a headrush
I feel insane

Fade Away

Call me the stick in your spoke
Can you see through the smoke tonight?
It's a rare bird in flight
Tell the truth or come to
What your future will show to you
Turning your face blue
You're drifting out in space
Complain about how things change
We got like a billion years
To fade away
We'll fuck up someday
Call me the wordiest one
In the corner with drinks and stuff, I never act so tough
Call me the stick in your spoke
Can you see through the smoke tonight?
It's a dead bird in flight
You're drifting out in space
Complain about how things change
We got like a billion years
To fade away
We'll fuck up someday
-----------------------------------
When, the lights go out
We'll hang around, just hang around
Don't know if I'll make it over
The road is long, and I got paper shoes on
Oh just let it go, step inside and see
Can you guarantee anyone anything?

Moon Town looks so lovely
It might be alright
If some ship goes down then
Split with me tonight
Cause you're my drugged out heaven
Only in my mind
When you were surrounded
I stepped out for light
