about

This song is about people we know growing up.

lyrics

He's talking on his telephone
With all the people he seems to know
"I was born in this hole
and I'll die in this hole."

And we haven't seen him for a while now

Time and time and time again
He's turning into a modern man
Time and time and time again
The boy is turning into a modern man

Slick sneakers cut through the trivial
Running off, running off you've mastered momentum
You held your breath, made blood boil
Then you hit but gravity maintained its pull

And we haven't seen him for a while now
Well hey man what the fuck?

[bass solo]
