Heavy Traffic Songtext
von Mockery

From a bird′s eye view, the common loon
The stark change in altitude seems worth it for the view
And it's barking like a dog to get you back into it
Jangling the keys of everything that′s left to prove
Such a mystery how it wanes and branches further from me
Open to the daylight for the first time was I mother, babe or womb?

How's it looking blue?
The rhythm keeps on changing right on cue
A constant yearning echos through the sewers
Grows louder than I can help it
Can't dance to heavy traffic news


So how can I take your form
Iridescent truth?
The scattered and abstract tones have veered us far off course
If I could burn into your mind the picture that I saw
You′d lose all the autonomy and questions I had to

There′s a chaos in the air that brings some magic to the
Calm collected nights inside a lonely living room

How's it looking blue?
The rhythm keeps on changing right on cue
Never know it staring at your shoes
And I need to take a second
Can′t dance in heavy traffic

How'd you get so bruised?
That wide eyed fascination shrunk so soon
And morphed into a nameless face consumed
By the lights of another bastard
Can′t dance in heavy traffic
