0% Interest

Our friends on the front porch telling jokes and they swing

Swiftly towards happier times

Expending lines and finding more energy for the effort and

Getting distance from that front porch spotlight

But us we found peace in shadows long enough to see the monsters

Rise

Candy's got some space to fill in her daydreams living high on

Yesterday's lie

Talking to me about some 0% interest and how she got a better

Deal than the next guy

And the way the lightning shocked us when we were lost and

Looking down that long missouri highway your hair was longer

Then and now i remember

Oh the roads unencumbered by cats they're burning like wet

Matches thru my miracle mile mind

You left your thumbprint inside me now for months it seems but

Mine only brushes your soft surface

And somehow it leaves me listless, my tongue curls under my lips

Oh yes

So i cant speak to tell you of the months before i met you

And the way the truth it locked us right about the time after

The lightning shocked us

When we were young and missing

Round that small new england byway our lives they were sheltered

Then and i now i remember

Well its not even being about that anymore i gotta get you down

Those tiny fragments of perfection they please me in a time

Unchanged when its not the same beginning

Or along awaited end.. if i knew all the words i would write

Myself out of here

If i was all the colors i would paint you pretty in gold in a

Picture so i'm told little sister

So now i'm sold little sister why don't you tell me about the

Sunsets in sweden and the laws of eden

And how you were the rock of gibraltar and how they called you

Foxy

Well that's another whole box of pandoras, that's another whole

Box of them ties

Slide your foot off the gas before we crash right back into the

Median

It separates our house from the middle of the street.. talking

About our house

Is on the front porch telling jokes and they swing swiftly

Towards happier times

Expending lines and finding more energy for the effort and

Getting distance from that front porch spotlight

But us we found peace in shadows long enough to see a monster

Die.

We all need to find a little space in our daydreams long enough

And just so long.

Long enough, just as long, just so long as its long enough is it

Long enough?

Is it long enough for me? long enough for me to chew on.

If it isn't.. if it is't .. if it ain't if it don't if it can't

Then it wont.
