From A Window Seat |
I’m buckle in my seat belt, plug my headset in a chair |
And to the music, I watch flight attendants move |
They are pointing out the exits, but it looks more like a prayer |
Or an ancient dance their bloodline reaches through |
These planes are built for sifting through the warriors from the men |
I’ve got time to sit and watch them for a while |
You can see everywhere they’re going, everywhere they’ve been |
And how they look out at the clouds each time they smile |
And I think, maybe he’s in town for someone’s birthday |
Maybe he makes trouble everywhere |
But as much he resists the conversation between the rivers and the freeways |
He knows it’s always there |
As the northwest passage sits somewhere below me as I sleep |
I dream of captains and explorers eating boots |
When I ask if I can join them and they offer one to me |
I wake up as my home comes into view |
So I reach out down for my notebook to see what impressions could be spun |
But it’s just buildings and a million swimming pools |
So I leaf back through the pages to see where I am from |
Or for some crumbling map of what it’s leading to And I find that the hero in this song that I am writing |
Doesn’t know he’s just an image of myself |
But as much he resists the conversation between the rivers and the freeways |
He’s somehow always asking them for help |
I want to make out all the signs I’ve been ignoring |
How the trees reach for the sky or in the length of someone’s hair |
'Cause when you don’t know where you are going |
Any road will take you there |
So maybe I’m in town for someone’s birthday |
Maybe I make trouble everywhere |
But as much I resist the conversation between the rivers and the freeways |
I know it’s always there |
