There's a rattle in the dashboard
And it's arguing with me
But I'm not sure if it's the voice
Of anything better than vanity
It says I'll remember every city
For long after I leave
But no matter what I do
They will not remember me
I want something returned to me
But I have known some people
These glowing singularities
One square foot of ground so solid
Unburdened and unburdening
Oh, to be the single soul of an empire
A willfully uncharted map
To live and ask nothing of anyone
And be content to get just that
I want something returned to me
Should I await some revelation
Some great blessing from above
So every memory be quelled
Of anyone I might have loved
And every mile the stuff of legend
Every thought be pivotal
Every move within my soul
Be jury, judge and criminal
No, I want something returned to me
I want something returned to me
Some days I fear gravity
Is gonna up and forget about me
Some days I fear you
Are gonna up and forget me too
Please don't forget me
I will be home soon
