lyrics

Sailing, sullen, time warped skin
Catching dollars in the wind
I've got boxes, and you've got tires
Why don't we put them together
And drive a while
And drive a while
And drive a while

You're a checker board
Playing chess
You don't know all the steps
You're a kite runner
Loosing wind
You're a dried flower dying
You got black and white thinkin
On your high school dreams
And nothing can stop it but

Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking

Fisherman Forgery Down at Bodega Bay
Your Signature's waning from all this disgrace
I've got a hammer
And you've got chairs
Why don't we crumble em down and
Start back bare
Start back bare
Start back bare

You're a checker board
Playing chess
You don't know all the steps
You're a kite runner
Loosing wind
You're a dried flower dying
You got black and white thinkin
On your high school dreams
And nothing can stop it but

Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
Sinking
