Lyrics
And the traffic is a metaphor for my life: I?m stuck?my patience is wearing thin.
And all these uptight, self-destructive people: there was a nazi named Mickey and an asshole named Jim.
It?s a nice place to leave
I can?t wait to get there
And the landscape is spread out so thin: it?s just like me with my shitjob, school, and a band. It?s urban sprawl epitomized, beautiful, and immortalized by a football team and a dead president.
It?s a nice place to leave
I can?t wait to get there
The only good thing about Dallas is . . . Leaving there and never going back again.
I am alone here. Here, I am truly alone. There?s nobody dropping by?no messages on my door. And all I do is sit and think, smoking cigarettes and I drink, wondering what it is I am still doing here.
It?s a nice place to leave
I can?t wait to get there.
