Across the overpass

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.

It's as simple as this, here it is

Couldn't spell it out more clearly

There's only today, and the freeway,

And the pain that keeps you near me

The animation, of sinking souls,

Strung along a telephone pole

It's easy to miss

You could circle the earth

The universe

We're shadowed in the same light

It's coming undone

So you run

While I'm circling the drainpipe

An invitation to just forget

Well I'm not finished yet, I got big plans

Cut off the table, hon and do the math

Washed out and faded like a photograph

And I spell out your name across the overpass

It's as simple as that

It's as simple as this

What I miss, I will carry to the last day

Deliver my spark

Through the dark

To the angels in the ashtray

Saturation of hopeless need

But as the asphalt bleeds

Curtains rise and

Someday you'll find me standing in your path

Whether deep in the background of some photograph

And you'll see your name scrawled across the overpass

It's as simple as that

Simple's hard enough now anyway

Simple's hard enough now anyway

Someday you'll find me standing in your path

Somewhere deep in the background of some photograph

And you'll see your name scrawled across the overpass

Someday you'll find me standing in your path

Somewhere deep in the background of some photograph

And you'll see your name scrawled across the overpass

It's as simple as that

Simple's hard enough now anyway

Simple's hard enough now anyway

Simple's hard enough now anyway

Simple's hard enough now anyway
