lyrics

The first time you left home
You were naked, slimy, still attached
And you didn’t have a single word to scream about that,
Well, sure as hell you scream

And now that you’re alone again
You feel naked, slimy, still attached
You struggle to find the words to speak about where you’re at
Well, maybe nothing’s changed
But to be honest there’s this newfound and vaguely dreadful sense that
Maybe nothing changes
Well, how about that?

You walk out that silvery door
Where’s the sting?
Where’s the fire and rain?
In the heat of summer you just sweat all through the day
You sure tethered something strange
In the roar of the passing trucks you can’t hear your breath
While you would hear the scream
Well, how about that?

There is nothing obvious about that

Well, I don’t know when
But I know that this is happening again
I said I know that this is happening again
And maybe there’s no shame
In being caught in a loop at the end
I said I’m feeling caught in a loop at the end
But it’s just the beginning
Well, how about that?

There is nothing obvious about that
