lyrics

9:00 am. She gets in the car hoping things will change this time around
"I wonder what they're going to say now,"
She whispers as she reaches for the radio dial
She's lost all her feeling, she thinks they are scheming;
It's a game she plays in her head

This is it. This life
This is what you wanted all along

He watches the wheels turn around, each revolution passing him by
"I give myself 2 years," he cheers. 2 has turned to 5 to "way too long."
He's alive and he's breathing, but living without meaning
He might as well be dead

Don't hold back. Take it to the people
These things will turn your head around...

They rolled over paths to travel streets of gold (now turned to gravel)
They forgot to roll the map out in their search for hope or glamour...

I absolutely love this band. I just think they're neat. While this isn't my favorite album of theirs songs like 'Life of Leisure', 'Bottle', 'I'll Make You Mine", and "Southpaw" (so, basically half of this album) Are some of their most well written and infectiously hook-y and catchy that they deserve to be ranked with the best of the best songs from "A Better Version of Me" and "Long Knives" (What feels like their opuses). 8/10. Ranking: Third Best Album out their Eight LP Length Projects. KaneSeatHeadrestOfTouringAmmos
