Straphanger Lyrics

So sorry to bother you... (I'm just passing through)
Lurking nomads in tunnels pedal tired tunes
Gin blossoms in full bloom... (This train is a tomb)
Sob stories for the daily commute
Times are tough, everybody knows
Wonder where you went wrong
Years drowning sorrows and so it goes
To the next car move on

Unseen shadows... (in life)
Lost in darkness... (in time)
Stir the still air... awake
Unseen shadows... (in life)
Lost in darkness... (in time)
Stir the still air
Adolescence spent down below... (should have stopped long ago)
A three ring circus in lo-fi stereo
Stomping and clapping in unison... (but they're not keeping time)
With a plea for some attention

Times are tough everybody knows
Too little work to go round
Pass the hat after every show
And scrape by underground
Unseen shadows... (in life)
Lost in darkness... (in time)
Stir the still air... awake
Unseen shadows... (in life)
Lost in darkness... (in time)
Stir the still air

(in life... in time)

You wouldn't understand, I never had a choice, found myself here
Couldn't leave if I wanted to, this place is who I am
