Passenger Seat Lyrics

I am a rolling river

Seasick with awe

Always moving forward

Scared of the lulls 

I am a sunken teardrop

Tied to the floor

It didn't take too much

To spill overboard 

I can't sit still but I can't get moving 

I lose my days catastrophizing 

Who am I, what am I 

Who can I, what can I 

If life is a car with a passenger seat

It's a world of hitch hikers, everyone you meet 

It's here and there, to and fro

Until we're dropped down the road 

I am a wide eyed swallow

Sucking in air 

Filled is the hollow 

And gone is the scared 

I am entangled branches 

Greeting my ghosts

Accepting the practice 

Of letting go

What's sabotage and what is dreaming   

The line is fine when you're scheming

Zooming in, zooming out

The beauty's in slowing down 

'Cause life is a car with a passenger seat

It's a world of hitch hikers, everyone you meet 

It's here and there, to and fro

Until we're dropped down the road 

It feels good to be nauseous 

'Cause the wave means the drought will subside 

I can't see where I'm going

But I'm learning to surrender with my eyes

Growing my security in insecurity, it's blossoming

Like a seedling to tree, the joy lies softly in the in betweens

Time is sweet like sap and cruel like love and quick like smoke 

Change is rogue like fire and drunk like power and everything is inevitable

I am a jar of rainfall 

Filled to the brim

Each day I pick up

And do it all again
