Spider In The Snow

The only thing worse than bad memories

Is no memories at all

From the age of 20 to 22 I had five friends

None of whose names I can recall

And as I would walk down K Street to some temping job

As winter froze the life out of fall

Yeah, I mustve been having a ball

Different scene outside your window now

Same VCR, same cats

Different people at the very same job

Similar alley, different rats

The trash goes out on a Tuesday now

You got to make a note about that

Yeah, this time youre where its at

You cant say it but I know that its in there

You dont know it but I know that youre scared

Obvious and lonelya spider in the snow

Now you find the very same pit still yawns

Deep down within the very same gut

The very same ghosts still seem to haunt you down

Down those lines you always tried to cut

You thought you just might need a little change

And now you find you got nothing but

How can a body move the speed of light

And still find itself in such a rut?

You cant say it but I know that its in there

You dont know it but I know that youre scared

Obvious and lonelyafraid to not let go

You cant say it but I know its in there

You dont know it but I know that youre scared

Obvious and lonelya spider in the snow
