lyrics

we hear the truck resound (while) driving home bound.
no one makes a sound as the silence starts to propound:

"what is this? something's amiss.
do you really care about these kids?
don't build pyramids for those who are remiss.
it's useless."

through this subtomane we remain the same.
driving through disdain, i hear the silence say:

"listen, now. can you hear the row?
don't you know they think you're middlebrow?
is this fellowship really worth it?
you could use a pinch-hit."

my friends here; they can't hear anything that i'm thinking.

so what is your stereo playing?
i thought i heard you mislay a sobriquet in disarray
(while) speeding down the freeway.

is it too late?
we hesitate far too often.

southbound isn't home bound.
yet we sail to reach unobtainable contentment and success.
