Meet me out by the fire escape
It's been 40 nights and 40 days
I've become uncertain in a cosmic way
Chewed my fingers to the bone today
Oh, won't you come around, meet me by the fire escape?
Untie this tied tongue tie
What is it that I wanna say?
What is it that I really wanna say?
What are the words I've been choking on, hoping someone will articulate?
Oh, no, that's some murky water
Alright, we're in the trenches now
I don't know when the party's over
All I know is I'm getting out somehow
Oh, what a fever dream
Meet me out by the fire escape
Join the procession down the alleyway
Our freedom's a joke, and we've got debts to pay
How many waves until the levee breaks?
Oh, won't you come around, meet me by the fire escape?
Untie these tied tongue ties
What is it that we wanna say?
What is it that we really wanna say?
What are the truths we've been choking on, hoping someone will articulate?
Oh, no, that's some murky water
Alright, we're in the trenches now
I don't know how the story ends
But the pages just turn over and then turn over again
Redemption's always out of sight and just around the bend
And the outcome doesn't match with what it is that I intend
Like a stack of books that grows and gathers dust beside the bed
Or the disconnect between what people do and what they've said
And I wanna read the news, maybe without losing my head
Oh, what a fever dream
Meet me out by the fire escape
It's been 40 nights and 40 days
I've become uncertain in a cosmic way
Chewed my fingers to the bone today
It's been 40 nights and 40 days
I've become uncertain in a cosmic way
Chewed my fingers to the bone today
Oh, won't you come around, meet me by the fire escape?
Untie this tied tongue tie
What is it that I wanna say?
What is it that I really wanna say?
What are the words I've been choking on, hoping someone will articulate?
Oh, no, that's some murky water
Alright, we're in the trenches now
I don't know when the party's over
All I know is I'm getting out somehow
Oh, what a fever dream
Meet me out by the fire escape
Join the procession down the alleyway
Our freedom's a joke, and we've got debts to pay
How many waves until the levee breaks?
Oh, won't you come around, meet me by the fire escape?
Untie these tied tongue ties
What is it that we wanna say?
What is it that we really wanna say?
What are the truths we've been choking on, hoping someone will articulate?
Oh, no, that's some murky water
Alright, we're in the trenches now
I don't know how the story ends
But the pages just turn over and then turn over again
Redemption's always out of sight and just around the bend
And the outcome doesn't match with what it is that I intend
Like a stack of books that grows and gathers dust beside the bed
Or the disconnect between what people do and what they've said
And I wanna read the news, maybe without losing my head
Oh, what a fever dream
Meet me out by the fire escape
It's been 40 nights and 40 days
I've become uncertain in a cosmic way
Chewed my fingers to the bone today
