Winter '04 Lyrics

The hum of street lamps
Did smother all of the noise
And spread out like a blanket
And the still that crept us out of bed
And into the blue line car
Held my head in focus

Slow down
We are traveling too quickly
From winter '04

You laid your head down
To catch up on your rest
To turn yourself back out again
I stepped across from roof to roof
While the city was on pause
Before we went back in again

Slow down
We are traveling too quickly
From winter '04

Hey, where'd you go?
I thought that you were coming along with me
You could not outrun all the thoughts
That would enter your heart and head

Your cousin's party
Did poison our eyes and ears
And dropped us into comas
Sometimes I'm aware that I've skipped days
And I don't know why they went
And I don't care that they're gone

Slow down
We are traveling too quickly
From winter '04
