The Gravity Car Lyrics
I peeked inside of your gravity car
Woke up five farmers found in a barnyard
I saw the distance between us had fell
For once in my life I believe what I'm saying
I peeked inside of your gravity car
Through open fields
Past the graveyard
I guess I'm wrong when I say we won't get far
Look where we are now
Woke up five farmers found in a barnyard
I saw the distance between us had fell
For once in my life I believe what I'm saying
I peeked inside of your gravity car
Through open fields
Past the graveyard
I guess I'm wrong when I say we won't get far
Look where we are now

Hmmm...gravity car??
I think it's about the progression of the world. The earth is a gravity car, how it seems like everything in our atmosphere sticks around the land, but everything else floats off in space.
Purposefully surreal: it's not meant to make sense, it's meant to imitate - or perhaps recreate or renact - a dream. To quote a man much smarter than I, who was instead speaking about a film at the time (yet it seems appropriate to quote in this instance):
"Individual scenes play well by themselves, as they do in dreams, but they don't connect in a way that makes sense--again, like dreams. The way you know the movie is over is that it ends. And then you tell a friend, "I saw the weirdest movie last night." Just like you tell them you had the weirdest dream."
So, I listened to the weirdest song last night...
