Here i am in traffic's slow flow
(where the needle touched down)
Carbon planes draw a cage around the air force base
(where the needle touched down)
My foot on the brake
Its ok to fly low
Over poor spanaway
An eagle swooped down from a semitrailer
Took the name of your town from a sharktooth freighter
The needles the same its recorded and played
As when you left me at the greyhound station the year i moved away
And if i knew then whats so obvious now
You'd still be here baby
My baby
Baby

Thats why i never come back here
Thats why they spit out my name
Your ex is a part of the battle
Trying to keep me away
The sledge of tectonic fever
The needle has landed again
Let it play

And the needle touched down
The needle has landed
The needle touched down
The needle has landed

The needle touched down from a semitrailer
Took the name of your town from a sharktooth freighter
And if i knew then whats so obvious now
You'd still be here
