Lyrics

There’s a pizza crust in the parking lot
And a black bird with a new batch of friends
The engine’s off, my seatbelt’s still on
Gathering up the energy to go in
There’s a shopping cart, in the 4 o’clock sun
Telling the light where to land
Fingers back and forth between the steering wheel and the seat
I wish that cart could talk to my hands
I know where to go, I don’t know how
I am just a shadow trying to get off the ground
Grocery store greeter, bright yellow vest so you can see her
Waiting to be hospitable
I do my best to reciprocate and fake a frugal smile
I’m not sure who’s more uncomfortable
The produce is impossible, can’t make decisions on a good day
What am I supposed to do now
All these artificial people, in this artificial light
Hell I don’t feel like myself anyhow
I know where to go, I don’t know how
I am just a shadow trying to get off the ground
I see myself, in the freezer door glass
I see myself in what’s behind it
Suspended on a shelf, waiting to expire
Or be brought back to life
There’s a tap on my shoulder, a concerned voice in my ear
“Is there something I can help you find?”
I guess I look confused, or a little bit lost
Or maybe it’s just how I look in this light
I know where to go, I don’t know how
I am just a shadow trying to get off the ground
