The Lawrence Arms – Intransit lyrics

I can't connect to this sacred object
The bar is open but to me the bar is closing
I like to suffer in a silent way
I can't get through the days without a glaze across my face

So smart and witty and funny and pretty and skinny
But tonight I don't feel right
I can't wait until I'm back in the city

A lonely rage
The hunger is the meanest cage
[2x]

I felt like we were at a loss
This is the cost of our...
The way you hit me with your grin
And now I'm almost over it
Soon you'll set me free
And raise a flag half-mast

I'm so stupid and speechless and burned-out, sedated and faceless
And sometimes it feels like I don't even exist in this place
I'm momentum, intransit, a ride in the rhythms of movement

So I stop and start thinking
That I realize all the people I'm missing
