Lyrics
Blacking Out The Friction
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I don't mind the weather
I've got scarves and caps and sweaters
I've got long johns under slacks for blustery days.
I think that it's brainless to assume that making changes to your window's view will give a new perspective.
And the hardest part is yet to come
I don't mind restrictions or if you're blacking out the friction
It's just an escape (it's overrated anyways)
The hardest part is yet to come
When you will cross the country alone.
