Lyrics
buckle up smooth down your hair
we're making a move
no more staring out the window
at the tree neighborhood
you guessed there's a big big world
but you don't even know
you can't imagine ocean or sand
and you don't even know snow
well that's about to change
your little room world disappears
there's a whole new state of things
but it's no new state to fear
and i'll understand
if i find you in the covers
i'll understand
if you're under the bed
i'll understand
if you're hiding in the closet
it's dark and the clothes
smell like inside your head
say good-bye
to danish wedding cookie breakfasts
say good-bye
to long wooden floor
say good-bye
to red bordello hallway
say good-bye say good-bye
say good-bye
to the couch you used to rip apart
say good-bye
to the pantry where you slept
say good-bye
to ceilings high above your head
say good-bye say good-bye
and i'll understand
if i find you in the covers
i'll understand
if you're under the bed
i'll understand
if you're hiding in the closet
it's dark and the clothes
smell like inside your head
