lyrics

On my back on the way to Tecumseh
In the hard bed of Estevan's truck
The rickety vehicle was rusty and clumsy
I, mesmerized by the heavens above

The backdrop was indigo, freckled with stars
marbling cataracts of milky gray clouds
Skateboards rattled while the celestial reel
played its ancient and breathtaking cinema out

Streetlamps were jealous old men with poor posture
whizzing by casting a wizened glow
stars twinkled playfully, and I'm thinking,
“maybe she's holding back secrets that no one can know”

The zodiac eternity a constant
rolling past modernity's nonsense
I watched a modern montage in my periphery
The earthly display was modest
A pity, it's pretty petty in contrast
with the majestic night sky twilight epiphany

what if creatures in some sort of saucer
also observe this conveyor belt film?!
The Earth just a marble, the curious marvel
the emptiness of space and how wonderment can fill

the cold wind in my hair
the stars gleam in my stare
the engine and laughter there
roared riots in my ears
The air in my lungs felt fresh
and at home in its room
comforted I felt blessed
like life might be telling the truth
