Lyrics

Whenever I come back
The air on railroad is making the same sounds
And the shop fronts on holly
Are dirty words (asterisks in for the vowels)
And we peered through the windows:
New bottoms on barstools, the people remain the same
With prices inflating - inflating

As if saved from the gallows
There's a bellow of buzzers and people stop working
And they're all so excited - excited

Passing through uncounscious states
When I awoke I was on the high-way - high-way high-way high-way
With your hands on my shoulders
A meaningless movement: a movie script ending
And the patrons are leaving - leaving

Passing through uncounscious states, when I awoke I was on the high-way
High-way high-way high-way high-way high-way high-way high-way
And now we all know the words were true
In the sappiest songs - yes, yes
And I'll put them to bed, but they won't sleep
Just shuffling the sheets, to toss and turn
You can't begin to get it back

Passing through uncouscious states, when I awoke I was on
The onset of a later stage: the headlights are beacons on the high-way
High-way high-way high-way high-way high-way high-way high-way
