lyrics

I’ve been eating lunch with chopsticks I’ve been singing to myself
I’ve been talking with good people we’ve been drinking to good health
them with warm shitty beer and me with ice cold ginger ale
now I’m gonna make it back to California even if the engine fails
‘cause I’ve seen faces in the mountains I’ve stood up in the clouds
looked down on the Copper Valley to that redneck-hippie town
I’ve felt the cold inside my bones and faced the fact that, back at home,
this will all be sifted through like bits of truth on the Carson Daly Show
but there’s a brand new set of circumstances waiting over there
and it makes me feel like everything up to this point
has been some daytime documentary on all the things you can get done
when you don’t know what you’re doing
we were southbound on the Cassiar at seven in the morning
scraped the windshield, ate some oatmeal and my shoes are still partially frozen
there’s a road before us waiting like the ocean toward the sun
you’re asleep and I’m daydreaming about a pecan Cinnabon
(Chorus)
I want to glue this moment to my forehead and walk around the town
let everybody see this part of me without having to break it down
to little words and little phrases that no one really understands
we’ll make a stop off in Vancouver it’s my turn to buy the gas
