Lyrics
The Waffle House sign flickers a broken prayer,
Throws yellow light on the dust in the air.
Cassie just traces the rim of her cup,
Thinks, we're a binary system that's burning up.

One word is all it takes for escape velocity from where we are...
Just one word...
[Outro]
But the sun's fixin' to rise on the asphalt soon.
So I just nod, staring at the back of a spoon.
