"Crosstown Static" lyrics

"Crosstown Static"

Maybe my head was hanging down
Maybe just two feet off the ground
Maybe the rain was comfort for a while
Maybe I lost that wicked smile

Too far to come down without a crash
Too long in the tube to make a splash
There's too much love spilling into the street
The crosstown static got me beat
All of the stories and all of the wares
None of the grace and all of the airs

Maybe my head was hanging down
Maybe just two feet off the ground
The rain was comfort for a while
And maybe you lost your goodly smile
Crosstown static got me down

Maybe my head was hanging down
Maybe just two feet off the ground
Too long in the tube to make a splash
Too far down to get cash

None of the grace and all of the airs
All of your malls and all of your stairs
Too much love spilling into the street
Crosstown static got me beat
Too far to come down without a crash
And everything good becomes the trash
