Lyrics

Now

Rush hour
Golden glow
Happy as a dog with a head out the window
There's a light on at home and I feel alright

Midnight and I grew bored
Of a tiny world and giant thoughts
I decided alone, I'm gonna be alright

Sunshine
Big trees
God, you look like you're in a movie
Everyone knows me and I feel alright

Midnight and I grew bored
Of that tiny world and giant thoughts
I decided alone, I'm gonna be alright

One day, far away, bad things come
But that's not now
Waves come, they will go and come again
But that's not now
