Standards Lyrics

Running down this winding path

That leads to nowhere

We forget the times that pass

And we're getting older

I need to brainstorm

In a rain storm

About where I'm going

Then I see a shining light

Staring back with green eyes

Hearing blink songs after midnight

In the background

While we play pong

In the basement

Down in Oak Park

I never thought I'd catch myself

Simply falling off

Falling asleep with no intentions

I'm just caught up

In the moment

With no concept

No emotion

I never thought I'd fall for this

And now it's catching up

As I walked into the door

We exchanged our glances

I just can't choose to ignore

I guess I'll take my chances

And as the rain falls on my face

My judgement's clouded

I can't see past this closer space

You know I'm fucked without it

Hearing blink songs after midnight

In the background

While we play pong

In the basement

Down in Oak Park

I never thought I'd catch myself

Simply falling off

Falling asleep with no intentions

I'm just caught up

In the moment

With no concept

No emotion

I never thought I'd fall for this

And now it's catching up

Hearing blink songs after midnight

In the background

While we play pong

In the basement

Down in Oak Park

I never thought I'd catch myself

Simply falling off

Falling asleep with no intentions

I'm just caught up

In the moment

With no concept

No emotion

I never thought I'd fall for this

And now it's catching up
