Telethon - Travelator lyrics

Artist: Telethon

album: Swim Out Past the Breakers


A pinch of tense relief, a keen mortality
While I'm playing Viewtiful Joe
Or watching Northern Exposure
Sure, I've had the smoke intrude on even quieter times
So sure it trickles through to minds much heavier than mine
And I half-wonder how to phrase it
To the flies drawn to the light
To adirondack chairs who don't like to discuss
Half-wonderings why
That frequency's louder than ever before
You've got pliable energy but whatcha using it for?
And if you're feeling how you feel
Then just don't feel anymore
And go when you decide to board
That travelator up through the trap door
That spider in the corner has lived here since October
You've mutually agreed you'll both let each other be
So long as he'll lend an ear
To all of the paragraphs you've scrawled
You won't hit him with a sandal
Paper towel him to the lawn
And he half-wonders while he's stretching
Yards of silk along your wall
How someone with such a simple problem
Can't keep it solved
That frequency's louder than ever before
You've got pliable energy but whatcha using it for?
Now if you're feeling how you feel
Could you not feel anymore
And go when you decide to board
That travelator up through the trap door?
That sensation of irrational guilt that you get
When you don't fuel your day by pounding your head on cement
Carve little castles from the wax that builds up that you can't
Separate yourself from no matter the time that you spend
Talking to your friends, tossing in pocket change
And closing your eyes, wringing your hands,
Hoping it'll somehow form a stent or
Passageway allowing evening traffic to move through
No questions asked, no questions left
No whys to wonder, split in half
That frequency's louder than ever before
You've got a fiery energy
But whatcha yellin' at me for?
If you're feeling how you feel
Could you not feel anymore
And go when you decide to board
That travelator up through the trap door?
