It was getting late in Philadelphia
A lost phone, you missed your stop
on the last bus home
Lost in your conversation
It was a sleepwalk in
It was a lonely strip
It was a wasn't thinking of getting back
It was a one way trip
You never notice anything
You never know that it's...
Too far
and too alone
that you're Jesus Vidana
that it's getting dark
that it's getting dark 'til you can't see
It was a walled in path
It was an underpass
It was an unlit road and you didn't know
'til you were coming back
Hands that grasp a flimsy rail
An uprooted tree
Trying to find a way back in
Trying to find a way back to gravity
Oh you never notice anything
You never know that it's...
Too far
and too alone
that you're Jesus Vidana
that it's getting dark
that it's getting dark 'til you can't see
You never notice anything
You never know...
Of course you only put enough fuel in the tank for a one way trip
Of course I oblige, my feet hands are tied
I'm forced to watch you slip
I forgot to eat, I forgot to breathe
And there are no trees or meadows or bees
in the great expanse of spring
No sunrise, no blue skies
I'm forced to watch you sink
There was a dragonfly...
There was a dragonfly...
