Soft Rock Band Songtext
Well it's play time in exile
And the weather is hot
So dream my recollections from the parking lot
I know time is a straight line
But I'm looking for curves
So I got down on the gravel
And I dig through the Earth
Till I find the last cityscape
Where it once was
Haunted by eucalyptus
And the ghosts of the guns
I'm the silence, I'm the revelry
I'm a shit talking melody

Oh, I might have seen it all
But I know, oh, there's still so much to go
Oh, oh, I might have seen it all

Well the moon's just a sliver
Helps me see my own grave
With lockers and the boxes of things that I say
And the paper and the plastic
Trace it backwards past
Showed my father was a spy
But my mom taught math
And our daddy was in the gold rush
Right before he went to war
But these days he shoots a laser
I don't know who for
Now I collect key cards from Holiday Inns
Or cigarettes and scratches that I can't cash in

There's only so much carbon
Hope Jesus is a real man
Maybe he was a peasant
Gladiator contest
It's proven by DNA test

And I know, there's still so much to go
Yeah no, I might have seen it all

And I've been in the backroom
And I've on the stage
And I've felt the heat coming off a blank page
And I was a pen once
With ink in my blood
And I was the moleskin that I couldn't afford
And I've been the Narcan
And I've been the coke
And I've been the punch line
I've been in on the joke
Oh and I was a woman once
And I'll never forget
Cause I keep searching for that feeling, haven't found it yet
Oh and once I was a Christian, but I prayed it away
And I guess that I was straight once, right before I was gay
Oh and when I was a young man, well it could've gone worse
I settled into mud and then I fell for the curse
And we started our family
Don't we love 'em to death
Oh but now I'm the mortgage, I'm the credit card debt
Oh and I am the clouds, raining down on the lands
I think once I was a singer in a soft rock band

No I'm not in trouble
You know I miss my network
And you know I miss my bubble
And I keep them all inside me
Oh, I know

I might have seen it all
Oh I know, there's still so much to go
Yeah I know, I might have seen it all
Oh I know, there's still so much to go
Yeah I know, I might have seen it all

Oh I know, I might have seen it all
And don't I know, there's still so much to go
And yeah I know, I might have seen it all
Don't I know, there's still so much to go
I might have seen it all
But I know, there's still so much to go
