Dark Side Of The Moon
Kathleen
[Verse 1] I had to leave home for home Packed my car up gave my key to neighbors Hope they keep my plants alive Then I drove four states East And every car along the ride was also on their own odyssey [Refrain 1] Florida to Tampa Oregon to Bentley These license plates like name tags in reverse migration Every mile closer to the dark side of the moon I dunno what’s comin do any of you? [Chorus] But last night I think I met my mom And this afternoon I met my sister And this morning I finally met my dad While he was outside just picking up dogshit Oh despite everything else I think I met myself [Verse 2] I’m having to reinvent The way I measure time now ’Cause "days and hours" feel like a past life Tryna learn new manners Like how to greet a stranger on the street With nothing but your eyes oh [Refrain 2] Texas to Houston New York to The City I know you’re getting slammed but you’ll walk again Every mile closer to the dark side of the moon I dunno what’s coming I just wanna hold you soon [Chorus] But last night I met the Milky Way As it was shivering outside of my window And this morning I finally met the birds ’Cause there’s nothing else to do but watch them Oh despite everything else I think I met myself [Outro] A few months ago I thought the world was ending it was Burning all the work we’d just begun But then through mornings without traffic Through horizons without smog I could see that wasn’t fire no That was just the dawn
