Lyrics Sleater-Kinney

Sleater-Kinney

Jumpers

I spend the afternoon in cars

I sit in traffic jams for hours

Don't push me, I am not okay

The sky is blue 'most every day

The lemons grow like tumors, they

Are tiny suns infused with sour

Lonely as a cloud

In the Golden State

The coldest winter that I ever saw

Was the summer that I spent

The only substance is the fog

And it hides all that has gone wrong

Can't see a thing inside the maze

There is a bridge adored and famed

The Golden spine of engineering

Whose back is heavy with my weight

Lonely as a cloud

In the Golden State

The coldest winter that I ever saw

Was the summer that I spent

Be still this old heart, be still this old skin

Drink your last drink, sin your last sin

Sing your last song about the beginnin'

Sing it out loud so the people can hear

Let's go

Be still this sad day, be still this sad year

Hope your last hope, fear you last fear

You're not the only one, you're not the only one

You're not the only one, you're not the only one

Let's go

My falling shape will draw a line

Between the blue of sea and sky

I'm not a bird, I'm not a plane

I took the taxi to the gate

I will not go to school again

Four seconds was the longest wait

Four seconds was the longest wait

Four seconds was the longest wait

Four seconds was the longest wait

Four seconds was the longest
