lyrics

You’re watching Shark Week, In a Dusty denver hotel room
the thin colored air, isn’t goo for your heart
you get a phone call, my grandfathers stuck in the hospital
there are photos documenting this tragic arc

drive the RV hastily down the flat kansas plain land theres a sign, advertising the famous three legged cow, what kind of people celebrate such tragic deformity holy hell i guess I’m one of them now

we stop for gas, and i buy candy that we’ve never heard of while you wait, with the dog, by the car
there’s something evil, growing inside both of us, but we don’t know it yet, no we can’t see that far

and i know you believe in god, and i know you get down on your knees and you pray that sometime, you will find a safe way out of this
and maybe years from now we’l all chuckle to ourselves, but that seems like wishful thinking now doesn’t it

zoom by a billboard, painted all by hand, it shows your savior his eyes are bleeding, looking out over the land,
and although you don’t seem to notice
i can’t escape its gaze
its eyes are following me, unrelenting,
ruby red and unfazed

and theres no stopping now, theres no stopping now
even if we want to turn around, theres no going back

and i way i don’t believe in god, but sometimes i get down on my knees and i pray that someday, we will find a safe way out of this
and maybe years from now we’l drive to denver once again, but that seems like wishful thinking now doesnt it

so put on a horses head
and walk around the town
pretend like all of this is normal
cry when no one else is around
and i know you want to escape this
and i know you don’t think you can
and god i wish i could help you
and i hate it that i can’t
just because i don’t see you any more
just because il never see you again
just because i fucking hate you doesn’t mean that i don’t care
i dont care
