Fluorescent buzz in aisle nine
Underneath
the static time
You stayed logged on way too late
Staring at the closing gate Now we're in
the crowded kitchen
Where the guest list died (hmmm) But you slipped out before the
chorus cleared
Left your keys where the shadows disappeared
Just cheap-date devotion on a paper plate
In the fluorescent glare,
we operate
Cans of soup and generic brand
Holding onto what we planned
A coworker is waving goodbye
Underneath the heavy sky
No big plans, just staying near
Finding grace
in the grocery tier But you slipped out before the chorus cleared
Left your keys where the shadows disappeared
Just cheap-date devotion on a paper plate
In the fluorescent glare,
we operate
Fluorescent buzz in aisle nine (ahhhh)
