[Verse 1]
Speeding up towards braking lights
If'I'd've'ever'knew
Sometimes I wanna cry
Sometimes I do
[Verse 2]
What does it mean now
That it's easier to stay out?
Sometimes I know how
A pawn is no slouch
[Pre-Chorus]
The pendulum swings back and forth forever
While I was wasting time desperately overcorrecting
The future was a traffic jam in Sweden
Where did all my money go again?
The pendulum swings back and forth forever
While you were wasting time waiting for life to start
I can hear thе wheels spinning in your head
You'll feel it when you're finally still again
[Chorus]
Bеcause your life might flash before your eyes in memories
Of fishing line wrapped around
Telephone wire along the causeway
Of brush bending in the wind
When you understood there's wisdom in the woods
The first star shivers through the top of a tree
Next to brittle, shaking, ornament-like leaves
Last light like a bruise
The color of the sun through a sheet of bone
[Verse 3]
Of beetle cleaned horns
And bleak shacks in Oregon
Falling apart quietly
Hand my ass to me
[Verse 4]
Mass exodus
Just to come back home again
Hat to my heart
Back home where I can dream
