"Rest Stop"| Bari Zezmore

[Verse] Everything's just like the TV said The water's brown and the sun's all red The sky's coming down We should get underground Somewhere close to the house How'd you like to get away for a while? There's a place up the road that my friends and I found It's an old family-owned spot It's not on the map It's a little bit trash It's a little bit crack But they make a good cocktail They make a good snack And they're open all night If you don't mind the rats [Chorus] If you've ever thought about leavin' the neighborhood There's no better time I hear it's quite nice [Post-Chorus] I thought that you might Like to see for yourself So I thought that I'd help And that's why I'm here now [Verse 2] You just drive down the highway It's straight all the way The house is on fire You can't miss the place You should see it right now Oh They're all freakin' out Oh They don't know the half Oh They don't know the half Like how the light of a flame's never dark And the waves in the sea never fall apart But what happens at night when you're lookin' up at the stars And you're feelin' so far from the rest of it all? [Chorus] If you've ever thought about leavin' the universe There's no better time I hear it's quite nice [Post-Chorus] I thought that you might Like to see for yourself So I thought that I'd help And that's why I'm here now [Bridge] You just lay back The mushrooms take care of the rest They say "Did you ever think you were part of something so big? All the thoughts in your head All the love and regret And your fear of the end is a joke 'cause you're never not dead Yeah You're never not dead 'cause you never existed" They say the best place to hide's where they never would look So they took a page from the divine's playbook And created a cosmic refuge for the heart And you found it when you entered the bar [Chorus] If you've ever thought about leaving [Outro] The neighborhood There's no better time I hear it's quite nice
