Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) - I Swim like a Minnow lyrics

you bobby-pinned your auburn hair back, as we crossed over the washington state line in my grandfather's car we were fleeing the scene of a california coast line, where we buried our dreams among the gridlock and concrete barefoot, we pulled off the road, and stepped into the summer night and we drank greedily of greenery and open air this was not the time or place to address the emptiness that hung around us or how the end of this trip birthed us with uncertainty of what to do next
