about

impressionist painting isn't average in any way but "average" as a word worked better than "broad" or "chunky" or something so give me a break...

lyrics

press the pedal
down to the floor
just kidding you know I
would never drive that fast

I’m not much for taking risks
it’s not that I’m scared
it just doesn’t really seem to be worth it

I can still feel the air
and I’d like to see the lights
so why don’t you look to the south
you can see everything from here

And in the darkness
the places people live
seem to float above the hills
And I can see the lights

we’re both looking far away,
saying something about death
and I think it might be good
to take our time with that

so we got left behind?
I guess people get left behind

and as our youths float to the earth
We still have no clue what to say

What to say

Eyes move slow, and legs move slow
Maybe I should go to bed on time

for once let’s breath in deeply
you know it’s ok to cry

I was never smart anyway

I’ll hold my bitterness and
open up my hands as the day breaks

please destroy it all!

I’ve had enough of these good dreams
because I know it’s all gone

squint into the wind by the seaside
pick up shells and toss them in

run across the shallow water
rest your hands just above the shining sand

close your eyes and little tears form
because you woke up really early today

I could never eat this early
I got sick and
I almost fainted

So it was lively, it was lovely, the sunset’s colored like a rose and
it was like not like nothing else but I’ll describe it with averages words
we both know impressionism was always the kind of art I liked
so i’ll use a big brush, if you squint you’ll make it out

press your nose against the window
the first snow barely dusts the ground

as much time as you spend in silence
one day this will be ten years past

and I once knew you, and you once knew me, but now I don’t know a thing about that
and I once passed you on the street but I didn’t realize ’til later
I thought we’d be friends forever
I thought I’d know you when I was 80
but I’m always wrong about so many things

so it was lively, it was lovely, the sunset’s colored like a rose and
it was like not like nothing else but I’ll describe it with averages words
we both know impressionism was always the kind of art I liked
so i’ll use a big brush, I’ll use a big brush

agh !!!! I don’t know,
And I’m sorry-
And I’m sorry I’ll never see you again
