This one hit me hard
The whole year's gone darker.
It was already pretty dark
His record was cheering me up.
"Mounting mileage on the dash"
Smoke coming up under the hood
Clouds hang low over Costco
At the crossroads of 8 and 80
There's no mountains in eastern Ohio
but sometimes I see them to the West over Seven Hills.
Beyond the bones of my grandpa's old Ford plant.
Beyond the Bedford Auto Mile
Past the cars and lives I'll never cross, except for on this highway.
Just trying to get home,
trying not to care too much.
But in my head I'm screaming:
"Fuck Trump! Fuck Trump!"
Waiting to merge as the world ends.
Burning oil, how does any of this make sense?
Past Independence, sex and death.
