lyrics

Let’s make a break for the stairs,
This Underground has got me brooding tirelessly.
We’ll find a place to repair,
Somewhere that we can get a glass of something cheap
And argue over how to spell Dostoyevsky [Dostoevsky?]
Before it’s morning and the whole cycle repeats.

We’re allowed to be reveling
In the in-between.
We’re allowed to be reveling
In the in-between.

Let’s get out into the night,
Under the engines of the jet-setting Elites,
Tracing their path in blinking lights.
Might not have status but a kid can always dream.
Might not have dreams yet but I’m capable of sleep.
Might not be sleeping but I didn’t think I’d be.

We’re allowed to be reveling
In the in-between.
We’re allowed to be reveling
In the in-between.

In the in-between.
In the in-between.
In the in-between.

Let’s get a train to Montrose,
Back to the temporary place we keep our things.
I know they’re all running local,
I’m in no hurry, I just want to be moving
In the direction of my mattress and box spring
So I can lie there half awake, half awaiting.

We’re allowed to be reveling
In the in-between.
We’re allowed to be reveling
In the in-between.
(In the in-between)
We’re allowed to be reveling
(We’re allowed to be)
In the in-between.
(In the in-between)
We’re allowed to be reveling
In the in-between.
