lyrics

It's just a story except for when it happens to you. You see those headlights coming. Blind- stare into a future that you never knew.

This whole world's out to get you, or so it seems.
The rest of us will let you down.
Seeing yourself in people you'll never meet.
And most of them won't care to help. And that's you and I and me.
That's human irony.
What a way to be.

Lining up/seems nothing more than a coincidence.
Points connect/the trouble is time to split the infinites.
"Stay awake"/it's so easy when it isn't me.
Either way/we'll call it a lifetime of synchronicity.

I skipped rocks across the surface as you watched the waves consuming my intentions. And I didn't think too much about it.
This trip I'd started nervous, as if still docked at bay. And waiting for the onset. I wasn't sure what to expect.
And each stone I'd thrown departed like a friend I'll never see again.
11-22-11/1963

Seems safe enough my love, it seems safe enough. My love it seems safe enough. My love it's

Adding up/curving swiftly out of history.
Had enough/just can't wait to share our misery.
Stay away/there's nobody handing out the mystery.
Either way/we'll call it a lifetime of synchronicity.

It's all a contradiction. Such perfectly complete, compelling fiction and novelty. Standing in sunlight thinking "is this really me controlling or collecting these memories?"
So many different ways to go.
For every piece placed this puzzle seems to grow.
Isn't that what makes it beautiful?
And such a wonder that we never want to let it go?
