Thinking In English

about

Tracks owns a gorgeous steam powered train station in the sky. Every man in his family for centuries have owned this station. It is the main port for long distance travel in Platonia.

Every so often, Tracks finds that a manic person comes to in claiming they are lost, but don't know where to go either. He can only send them in a cable car back to town. He swears, though, that he sees them dissipate into thin air as they leave the station.

lyrics

Think…
I constructed a cable car for all of my
Thoughts
And now at the station there is something going
On
I wouldn’t sit and forego the endless rhythmic click of cogs that turn with every little pinch and every
Drop
The conductor tips his hat, and turns his eyes up to the clouds.

And so I sit real still to feel synapses burst and bump around,
But when I get the feeling that I sort of get it I start to realize they abound.
And they melt into my brain.
But I swear I’m not insane,
Because I’m thinking in English.

Cool…
So tell me about your vacant sunny train station
Stop
It’s always devoid of people, the best place to have a
Read
You know despite all the cars, conductors do not have to let you in they see your face and then decide you’re lost.
But I can’t say that I blame you.
And so I sit real still to feel synapses burst and bump around.
But when I get the feeling that I sort of get it I start to realize they abound.
And they melt into my brain.
But I swear I’m not insane,
Because I’m thinking in English.
