“Century”

dogs eyes
in the headlights of the driveway
cool autumn rain
bugs died

on your windshield on the freeway
wonder if you’ll be the same centuries flower
and we have the same power
we have the same power
we have the same power
we have the same power
moth flies
in the window of the kitchen
hang up your coat
cold lips and gold eyes listen
there’s something that i want
you to know
turn on the shower
‘cause we have the same power
we have the same power
we have the same power
we have the same power
no resolution
no circling dove
still caught
in the jaw of confusion
don’t know what i’d do
for love
but stay another hour
'cause we have the same power
we have the same power
we have the same power
we have the same power
