lyrics

when you break a whole town down
into concrete streets and plastered walls
a few trees in pretty places
there's a feeling in the air

bricks in bunches bridges and bums
silence is hard to come by
transit buses and thumping bass
and these dogs will bark at most anything

this spells mostly stress for a host of most folks

but it's nothing to me for good company
and conversation in a room that i choose
i don't ask for much i know that's you too

this is our bubble theme
ego knock it down for all to see
and never need to say goodbye to
and never need to ever need to

need to cry for what we're lacking
things can come and shake around
at a pace that spells only grace to me

when you take a look around
at valued things and wedding rings
a few trees and picket fences
i know there's a dream for me

but it's based upon simplicity
maybe a little security
because it's cold outside the bubble where i reside

a lack of company is what has been ailing me
that's what they tell me
