Lyrics
The crows and racoons made confetti of the trash
And the blowing cherry blossoms sticking to the glass
In the gray ghost sunrise on Fifteenth Avenue I knew
The Spirit Halloween Store hermit crabbed into its home
In the catacomb of retail where rent-a-cops roam
We’re the last true believers
And the first ones to go I know
On Northgate Gate
Northgate Way
It’s fine I guess
Woke up to my neighbor calling for his cat
Please come home that’s all I really ask
There’s glitter in the sidewalk
And glyphs on the glass all new
There’s a trail of bagels plucked from the trash
Leading to the corner where the stolen Kia crashed
When you barely survive it
It’s funny how you laugh it off
On Northgate Gate
Northgate Way
It’s fine I guess
I know that I’m home I can feel it in my eyes
The mattress stores the new tires
Diesel fumes and fries
They knocked down the old mall
A new one will rise
We’re told
On Northgate Gate
Northgate Way
Discount Tire (on Northgate)
Structure fire (Northgate Way)
Smell the rubber hit the road (Northgate Way)
Twenty five (on Northgate)
Sixty five (on Northgate)
Doesn’t matter how fast you go (Northgate Way)
Big Five ( on Northgate)
Five Guys (Northgate)
Makes you feel so alive (Northgate Way)
There’s a crosswalk (Northgate)
Every six blocks (Northgate)
You’re gonna take your life in your hands (Northgate Way)
Northgate
Northgate
Northgate Way
