about

Inspired by the novel by Daniel Quinn

lyrics

desperately holding the gas pedal down to the floor
trying to escape what we cannot remember
how could we be so blind?
I feel the asphalt eroding as we drive
crumbling at our feet, life is pulsing through the sealant
suffocating

why don't we have?

cradling spoonfuls of oil away from the fire
spill no single drop like a coin from the ocean
we exhale every time we speak we are holding the gas pedal
down to the floor trying to escape what we cannot remember
how could we be so blind?
