On the Ave V2 Lyrics

On The Ave.

Lyrics by Aaron
Music by Pinhead Gunpowder
Additional vocals by Lauren
Recorded by Chris Dugan in Jingletown, Oakland in 2008
Appears on West Side Highway EP
No guitar tab yet
We chased each other wet + soggy like a crashing wave
Grey + filthy in the gutter breaking all over the place
Down the Ave. in the pouring rain
Saying, even more! even more!

At the reservoir you impaled your wrist
On razor wire climbing the fence
I cut my thumb trying to
Climb into the blind-deaf school

We were a mess, b***** and half-undressed
In the shelter of the shadows of the Frisbie Street creek
A canopy of trees and leaves
With us hidden underneath
Time rolls over me
Time rushes over me
Why try to run so fast
It still passes you by

I had some friends, a psychotic couple
They had a room in a residential hotel
They fought in the bed
While we f***** on the floor
We'd only slept an hour together when
The manager set the place ablaze
I awoke to the smoke and flames
And had to kick down the door

Time rolls over me
Time rushes over me
Why try to run so fast
It still passes you by

Why talk about what could have been
Why walk around lost reliving moments
Why walk around at all
When it's easier to drive a car
