Story Behind The Song

sometimes making adjustments in life is a drag. this is about that and it not getting me down

Song Description

Nothing is too bad because you can run away

Lyrics

My life is a post war Duracell
running me into the ground
(can't seem to stop)
And I don't remember anything
(I'm just resting between
pills, pops and shots)

My life is a disguise
like the CIA
Never revealing the truth
(that's the truth)
Except for a t-shirt I found in old El Paso
saying my life ain't nothing but dirt

Post war post modern after everything
another gold rush
another body piercing
another day the music
wasn't allowed to sing
Looks like I'm running outta here

When i was a kid
I'd listen to the hum of the airplane
Flying out over my bed
Pretending to take my nap
I'd close my eyes like a trap
and dream I was sailing out the window

Looks like I'm running outta here
Looks like I'm running outta here

My life is a page out of
The great American novel
the one that ain't been written down
so you ain't gonna find it
at your local Barnes and Noble
but maybe if you catch that train across town

Post war post modern after everything
Another gold rush
another body piercing
another day the music
wasn't allowed to sing

Looks like I'm running outta here
Looks like I'm running outta here.
