Intro:  


                                  
I am a prisoner in the sunlight / you are my cellmate in the darkness / 
                                                          
there's a box full of mix tapes with titles you came up with / 
  
they can show us where we came from but not how to get back there / 
                                                               
listening to the songs can't heal my broken fingers it's just weight for the 
                        
anchor to keep your ship here

goldfish crackers in a zip-lock bag / in a gas station garbage can / 
                                                  
I'm filling up this evening so I won't have to at 6am / 
 
on my way into work but that could have been me / 
 
working behind that counter on the curb there smoking / 
                                                            
we're really not that different just a few steps from exploding

                               
now I'm serving time / till I've earned the right / 
                                           
to go back to the place where we started from / 
                              
now I'm serving time / till I've earned the right / 
                                             
baby I swear one day we'll get the money straight
