Southern Empire

Fluorescent breaks through the window, I hear them laughing in the yard outside

Feel like I've been running for days.

My mind keeps turning on a chorus

trying to forget we've never done this. I'm still hungry for a band on the stage

A coal train runs through this town all night. A clock that calls on the hour and the quarters too

Someone's dancing on the living room floor beneath our heads. And I wonder

am I gonna get some sleep? Am I gonna get some sleep tonight

I stare at walls of a cold room. I smell the ocean and the second-hand smoke

I'm so tired, but I'm ready to go
