Smog  - I Was a Stranger

Music in a jugular vein - Philly Joe Jones

15 Random Rules - Silver Jews

Verse 1

As you leap up out the bed
Grab your shirt and then you’re gone
I just lie here, hold my breath
I know
This thing is done
I’ll try to make it on my own

Chorus

It’s another day
It’s another lie
It’s another broken rib to hide
It’s a shallow bay
It’s the deepest part
Oh, in the dark I lay
It’s the time to go
Won’t you let it be
I can’t take the constant of you
Beat
I know
I made finer rope

Verse 2

As you break your hide
Letting things that grow
Just die away
Something you should know
Failing and I
Somehow when you pray
I say
I’ll pay

Chorus

It’s another day
It’s another lie
It’s another broken rib to hide
It’s a shallow bay
It’s the deepest part
Oh, in the dark I lay
It’s the time to go
Won’t you let it be
I can’t take the constant of you
Beat
I know
I made finer rope

Bridge

Talking to the wall to break it down
Shattered through the glass so I can see
Built a castle made of sand for you and me
You and me
You and me

Deepest Part

Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea (2008)

Way way out past where the sidewalks disappear
And up through bright blue blocks of sky
Where the days turn to weeks in the months of the year
And we're together, you and I.

We could be looking for the same thing,
If you're looking for someone.
We could belong to each other,
If you're not seeing anyone.

I hope I don't come across as a coyote in your eyes
But I've been around some and I've seen
Enough to know we could both spend happy lives
Inside the days of you and me.

We could be looking for the same thing,
If you're looking for someone.
We could belong to each other,
If you're not seeing anyone.
