Foresight Lyrics

Sometimes foresight is finding a place to land

and then gambling with your tired feet

and not caring how long you can stand

we drove home in december

and you said you were cold

as I rolled down the window



and you could see your breath

but i was the only one looking

trying to read the conversation

but instead I was putting words into your mouth

and defrost is just another word for clarity

between the breath you and me

and we drove home besides the fact that we stayed the night beside the highway in my head

and you can starve or you can sell out

but if you stay the night

I'll make you breakfast with whatever I can find in the front seat of my car



Looking for a sweater

my whole life

found it when I was 17

color green that doesn't grow that had rips on the sleeves

when I came out

with it raised triumphantly above my head

everybody stared past me into the closet from which I came



and you can think what I've heard you want

you can say it's unnatural

all I know is I'm sure as hell am not making this up

he has a girlfriend as pretty as she can be

I've been dating myself for quite some time

I've never crossed the lines

I've learned too well



When I say "I like you"

all I mean to say is

I don't see the need for destination

we can set up shop in the backseat

next to frantic blowing tree and the broken paper cups



and on the way down

to meet the ground

I don't care what the surface

the more you stare at the bricks on which we stand

the more water you, the more water you, the more water you, the more water you

see

the more water you see
