lyrics

I want to know a backward compatible companion
A tired road, a sleeper in the grass
The days are ruined, it’s like a thousand afternoons
Just landed in my lap and swore themselves to secrecy
But whatever they’re keeping is not worth me seeking

It’s not too late for me to touch your virtual body
And your estate isn’t all that heavily guarded
It gets so cold that next time I break the mold
I’m gonna wrap myself up in all of the pieces
And I wanted you so bad, I wanted you so bad

I’m getting old and I’m trying to keep my propeller
Above the fold and on the bottom line
There’s nothing more, I don’t know what this antenna’s for
But as long as there is a 24 hour convenience store
I’ll be conscious forever with my hands tied together

It’s just one step above a stick and a torn up bandana
It’s hard to love it’s harder still to join
The highway stars in a world of high calorie protein bars
And a trophy for the leader of the double dippers
And I wanted you so bad, I wanted you so bad
