Receipt at Closing

(ahhhh-yeah) Roller rink lights spinning in the dark

Another name engraved, a tiny spark

A silver bracelet with another letter

We keep the past to make the present better

Behind the bakery counter after ten

The flour settles, but we're back again

A coworker still online,

screen glows so bright Holding a thermal receipt into the night

No reason to keep it,

but they won't let go

Why do we save the paper when the bread is sold?

Keeping a proof of things that we can't hold (oh why,

oh why)

Roller rink lights spinning in the dark

Another name engraved, a tiny spark

A silver bracelet with another letter

We keep the past to make the present better

We collect the static from another day (static line) While the roller

skates glide away

Just a silver name

Just a printed receipt Spinning under the lights (ahhh-hah)
