Lyrics

...Vanished in fury of smoke. before she left she spoke about a problem and a plan. she said "i plan to make my escape, gonna check out the united states. can't take this island wasteland. how can I be who I want when they know me as who I am? besides, people work their whole lives hoping to get here. I figure they could use the room. a great place to get rich, have kids and die. I probably won't be coming back so soon. how can I be who I want if I stay here with you? so goodnight, dark island. it's the weight of life spent peeking out from beneath the trees...the way the front lawns wander on endlessly. and it's not a bad life. working 9-5, weekend gardening and cheating on your wife. but if you find yourself broken in the slow mercury of days, and have the courage for the traffic, I know a secret to escape: just be who it is they want. it's easy to find your way. I can't help feeling like there's never enough friends or any friendly faces, just a bunch of clever ways to say "jesus saves'"
