The Plan - Restorations

Losing friends in the name of The Plan

'99, '06, and '10

Hoping to find some kind of forgiveness

She says, «Look at these kids in their fancy clothes!

They got nothing to show, nowhere to go.»

Some days, we’d just follow them for miles

Don’t got time for all these positive assertions

Don’t got time to read or write

Got enough to do just to keep the roof on

In these stacks and rows

We’ve got a long way to go

Sweet stacks and rows

And a long way to go

Chalk it up to common confusion

Missing the point entirely

I was listening to Bob Seger

While you were listening to Pete

With a wry smile, she says to me

«Well, which side are you on?»

Oh, to be here at all

I think I heard you singing

Outside, 6:30 in the morning

While my head’s still spinning

And the middle of the streets blaring

While I’m picking up the pieces

Standing on the edge of the storm
