Lyrics

drinking, while sleeping, strangers unknowingly keep me company, in the hotel bar, looking out a window, that isn't there, looking at the carpet, and the chairs, the only words i've said today are "beer" and "thank you", beer. thank you, beer. thank you, beer. giving praise in a quiet way, like a church, like a church, like a church, that's far away, i've got limitations, like marvin gaye, mortal joy is that way, outside a train sings its whale song, to a long, long train, long long gone, then silence comes back alone, high as scaffolding, until the wind finds something to ping, or the pinging thing finds the wind, we're all looking for a body, or a means to make one sing
