First Train Home

Got to get on it

Got to get on it

Got to get on it

Bodies disengaged

Our mouths are fleshing over

As hiss and echo gain

Irises retreating to ovals of white

The urge to feel your face

In blood, rushing to paint my handprint

And Frisbee one by one,

You're vinyl on laminate

Desperate for some kind of contact

First train home, I've got to get on it

First train home, I've got to get on it

First train home, I've got to get on it

Got to catch, to catch, catch, catch, catch

First train home, I've got to get on it

First train home, I've got to get on it

First train home, I've got to get on it

First train home

Da-dum, dah, day-o

Day-o, dah day-o

Da-dum, dah, day-o

Day-o, dah day

Temporal dead zone

Where clocks are barely breathing

Yet no one cares to notice

For all their yamming on

I clam up to hold it together

I want to Play-Doh waveforms in the hideaway

Want to get on with getting on with things

I want to run in fields, paint the kitchen and love someone

And I can't do any of that here, can I?

First train home, I've got to get on it

First train home, I've got to get on it

First train home, I've got to get on it

First train home

So what?

You've had one too many

So what?

I'm not that much fun to be with

So what?

You've got a silly hat on

So what?

I didn't want to come here anyway

What matters to you doesn't matter, matter to me

What matters to me doesn't matter, matter to you

What matters to you doesn't matter, matter to them

What matters to them doesn't change anything

Got to get on it, first train home

Got to get on it, first train home

First train home, I've got to get on it

(Got to catch, to catch, catch, catch, catch)

First train home, I've got to get on it

First train home

First train home

Got to go, to go, to go

To get, get, get, get

Out, out, out, out

Now, now, now, now
