Song #164: 11:11- Defiance Ohio
From the album The Great Depression, released April 13, 2006
"I had no idea what I was after/ I'm just preparing for disaster/ with everything feeling so far away/ familiar faces/ familiar lips/ is there any point to this/ hanging around/ I was upset when that glass broke/ doing the dishes/ at 11:11 every night I make wishes/ habit and superstition/ feed my foolish fire/ they've been burning for a couple of months/ I stay out all day/ just to keep these thoughts away/ why don't you give my feet a break/ and come back/ I remember in the kitchen when you told me your grandma died/ that's when I realised it gets worse/ I want to wish things last forever/ won't you thicken my soft skin/ comfort me so and I remember remember/ when I walk through that door/ I won't dear the happy sounds anymore/ this year took so much away/ and won't give it back"
