Lyrics
We drive slow Following directions we can't read Showing doors we've no hope of opening When we left home We were filled with the zeal of new intent Notes on Kant and the dreams of lower rent Now the Cafes we attempt to dine in Never want to let us in They can see we are guilty of the sin Of our births So we sleep on trains Avoiding all the notice that we can Hiding our passports in the shadows of our hands And the telephone remains the only link To what we've left behind Though there's not a single one of us who pines For our old homes We'll just move on Live our lives out as perpetual vagabonds Unremembered and finally unloved And in the end we'd probably all admit We were more than just a little bit afraid The results of the choices that we'd made Didn't mean a thing
