Atheist

On our initial descent into Chicago Katie leans over my lap Looking out the window For a glimpse of the house we were kids in She says, "I hated it then, but now I kind of miss it" Shirts in the microwave, trash in the sink Quarters in a mason jar for every time she smokes She says, "If we keep this up, girls, in no time we'll be broke" I don't remember getting older, but I'm slowing down I don't know if I'm gonna miss you where I'm going now The 20th of October Hair of the dog, a blanket on your shoulders Reading the menu in an accent Trying to get you laughing She said some kids from the Christian school Came to sing her a song It went like, "Angels watching over us all our little lives" I don't know if I buy it, but it does sound kinda nice I don't remember getting older, but I'm slowing down I don't know if I'm gonna miss you where I'm going now
