Standing On Hind Legs

from Relative Truth by Gabe Hascall

	/

lyrics

in the drivers seat it’s never ok to fall asleep
instead of driving
in the bed of a truck it’s probably ok to doze off
but it’s way too bumpy
all the money in the world
wouldn’t be enough for what I would pay
to stay in bed all day
it’s not that I’m trying to actively avoid
the act of living
it’s just that I’m addicted to feeling rested
and ready to go
I know I need to find balance
I keep falling over and I can’t walk around with a pole
it’s not my goal

my ears are ringing more than they ever have
my voice is singing a song about my ears
my head is filled with ideas undertaken
my understanding is expanding over time

I believed in a false prophet and it
motivated my movements
I believed in a true crime story that
most likely made no sense
why would anybody want to kill
I belong on a farm where I’m free to roam
and free to sleep

all afternoon it’s sooner than you think
the waiting game feels like more of the same
my head is filled with ideas undertaken
my understanding is standing on hind legs

I have everything The Stereo has released (Let Go & Jamie's solo stuff, too) and while it's early, I don't see how time won't prove "Thirteen" to equal or surpass anything else they've done. It's that good. whitsbrain
