Trans Am (Lyrics & Video)

Lyrics:

Trans Am
Take me
Away.

Doesn't have to be far:
Skirt of the town or just circle around.
But fast,
Let's go fast.

One hour.
I was one hour late.
And I paid.
No exceptions made,
From a boss with a boss with line so bottom it's sad.

Square one welcomes
Me back.
Square one welcomes
Me back.

Trans Am
Take me
Away,

Where the light starts fading,
And darkness erases potential I've wasted.

Overdue.
Another payment late
And a part of me harbors a wish that they'd
Just come get it over with,
Take it all away.

Square one welcomes
Me back.
Square one welcomes
Me back.

This is not a great escape.
No miles to go.
No distance gained.

Foreground bends to let me by.
It knows I won't leave it behind.
The streets are wide that once stood still.
The highway signs blend with the hills.
The window frames the gentle blur
In all that is and things that were.

Ooooo....
Ooooo....

Trans Am
Take me
Away.

Doesn't have to be far:
Skirt of the town or just circle around.
But fast,
Let's go fast.

Trans Am
Nathan

Indian sitting style chair

The work of Darshan Nerkar. A chair designed for styles of sitting presumably common to India.

Aside from filling a cultural-posture niche, I personally think I'd find this chair comfortable and useful given the ways I tend to sit.
