[Intro: Angular Guitar Riff, Heavy Bass Line, Lo-fi Drums] [Verse 1: Staccato Vocals, Palm-Muted Guitar] The dashboard is melting, the radio is screaming at the windshield glass I was idling in the driveway, leaving a trail of oil on the grass [Build] You said, "Everything ends," and I said, "Well, I guess that depends On if we dissolve in the rain or just dry out in the wind." [Sudden Stop] I was looking at the map but the map was looking back at me blankly I’d tell you I’m sorry, but quite frankly... [Chorus: Explode, Distorted Guitars, Crash Cymbals] I know that you know that I know this was all my fault. I’m just a garden slug getting stuck in a circle of salt. [Music Drop: Bass and Vocals Only] I sold the steering wheel just to pay for the toll, [Full Band Return, Yelled Vocals] Why did I burn your heart just to warm my soul? [Interlude: Chaotic Horns and Feedback] [Verse 2: Manic Spoken Word, Fast Tempo] Well, we built a house out of balsa wood and a life out of matchsticks It was a calculated risk, it was a cheap parlor magic trick And the road is getting salty, or maybe the radiator is overflowing [Crescendo] Either way, the engine's getting cold yeah it’s time to get going. I threw the rearview down, I painted over the town [Scream] I turned the volume up just to drown out the sound! [Chorus: Anthemic, Wall of Sound] I know that you know that I know this was all my fault. I’m just a garden slug getting stuck in a circle of salt. I sold the steering wheel just to pay for the toll, Why did I burn your heart just to warm my soul? [Outro: Feedback fading into Banjo, Slowing Down] (Warm my soul) (Pay the toll) (Stuck in salt) [Whisper] I know, I know, I know... [End]
