Andrew Kamen - Separate Lyrics

Quite a trait
I can explain away
Extraordinary claims
Give me a few days
I'll get back to you
With a point of view
That belongs to someone else
But at least it's new
Surely you're joking
Assuming you're not
What have you been on
Can you get me some
Enter stage left
What are the odds that we met
At the end of all things
As I empty my desk
Absent-minded professor
Sketching threats into the overhead projector
Growing more lethargic by the hour
You're not a terrorist, you're a coward
On a tangent
But can't rent
Without a cosign
Leaves moving like waves
Brushing up against the shoreline
Not separate from the world
We are of it
Not separate from the world
We are of it
Unexpected turns lead away
And we love it
What was hectic and terrible
Is now funny
Caught up in the springs of the trampoline
Launched into a rose bush
I was a baritone, now a tenor
All I needed was a push
Backflip off a swing
Backwards down a slide
Headfirst out the shopping cart
Motorcycle boy
Ran the stop sign
And went towards the light
They keep their sprinklers on
While it's raining
What's the point in complaining
Growing apart is painful
But it's happened all before
Distorted declarations
Yelled out from afar
If we can't pay the rent
We'll just make songs in your car
Rows of empty houses
Disappearing as we pass
I'd rather be starve than go back
Not separate from the world
We are of it
Not separate from the world
We are of it
Unexpected turns lead away
And we love it
What was hectic and terrible
Is now funny
