[Intro]
What do you want me to say? That things haven’t worked out the way that I planned? That I’m struggling, barely able to keep my head above water? That L.A. is a cold place even in the middle of the summer? That it’s a lonely place even when you’re stuck in traffic at the Hollywood Freeway? That I’m no better than a screenwriter driving a cab, a starlet turning tricks, a producer in a house he can’t afford? Is that what you want me to say?
[verse]
Feel it coming
On the tracks
It won’t stop for us
We just sit back
No one cares
If I live or die
So I might as well
Waste my time
Sitting on the floorboards
Reading a book
Watch the cars go past
Feel it pinching
Around my back
It won’t stop
It never cracks
Watch the cars
Which one’s yours?
I liked that Honda
You preferred the Ford
