lyrics

My car is working hard
You’ve left all of your salt out in the street
I’m resting on the door
Steeping sounds and I am sound asleep

“Our tendons and muscle fibers
Tense up and set on fire
I’m desperate but I’m not buying”
So I stretched out and started lying

If our hearts are pumping ink,
Are we left with something in between
Abstraction and Industry?
But foreign words have entered in the stream

“Our tendons and muscle fibers
Tense up and set on fire
I’m desperate but I’m not buying”
So I stretched out and started lying

Our blood vessels are confined
Waking up to tail lights
