lyrics

Finish a half a cup of coffee
You bet your life today Ill be walking
As sixteen year olds and blind and deaf people breeze the sidewalk where I stay
Everybodys gone through it, I tried to join today but I couldnt
Im treating this like it is some sort of impossible accomplishment
Is something wrong with me?

Im closing up

Im rolling up and down the main street
Im going crazy, still incomplete
A new void rolls in just as I roll out of the driveway by myself
And I agreed to do something that I did not want to do
Yeah well here we go again, it seems this road will never end
And ive completed a full circle
(my wind is blowing too fast)

Im closing up

Yeah well sometimes I forget that Im even alive
Im always so connected and vulnerable and Im numb when Im surrounded by flourescent lights
And this feeling fills me head to toe to the point where I cant feel a thing
And Im still terrified of you
And I think of what these days may bring

Im closing up, again

Dont think
Allow and react
Roll with the change and let the change happen
Times up
Let go of the past
Im scared of losing illusions that I think I am
Dont think
Allow and react
Roll with the change and let the change happen
I cant, sit back and relax
Let go of something as minor and petty as this

Dagwood is a New Haven based punk band. Bubblegum melodies and a 'Raw Power' rhythm section energize their chronicles of clumsy and surreal suburban malaise. Princes of power pop and the greatest band of all time.
