august light the weightless fall
     C#m                  G#m
the hold of trucks could carry us all

the hot exhaust

bodies all backlight

unconscious though we’re moving

stereo was screaming

now un-glide with our hands

and don’t get caught dancing

even if you’re drinking

don’t get caught dancing
