Pinegrove - On Jet Lag lyrics

Don't tell me that the west has won
We worked hard to reverse that notion
Closer than anyone, but we're
Not for each other, no
I've got to crack my eyes
To watch the wind blow

Cat's Cradle is a fable, we all know that
Soon as I can I will
Slide that under the table
I met your mother and your
Father and I liked them
They bicker the way we bicker
The way we bicker

A black cat just snuck up on me
Activities and distractions are my remedy
You're writing by lamp light
You're writing by the moon rise
A stark contrast to the
Montclairian buzz skies

Cat's Cradle is a fable, we all know that
Soon as I can I will
Slide that under the table
I met your mother and your
Father & I liked them
They bicker the way we bicker
Back when our blood was thicker than oil
And the soil was in every spark
And every plug and everything
My departure made my nerves sting
It's leaving a person place or
Thing you know you shouldn't

On jet lag, I'm past that
Plainly, none of this is that bad
He said, "let me be clear this woman's crazy"
I caught a glimpse of your truth
As you turned to me

And it was kind and it was stubborn
Just like I'd like mine to be
So I will dissuade, I will just sleep
I can be patient, probably
I can be patient, probably
I can be patient, probably
