Mass Ave Lyrics

Aren't you tired of trying to figure out where you fit in?
Just let it come and when it does
Try not to run for the door

Hey I felt the ground open up tonight
And I stood up too fast and everybody noticed
You were the only one in the room who smiled

And I wish that window in the front
The one that faces Mass Ave

I wished it'd opened on its own
And we could have flown out on the wind of that moment
And leaving all the puzzle behind us
And aren't you tired of puzzles?

Aren't you ready for a window to open?
And aren't you tired?
Just let it come and when it does
Try not to run for the door

Hey I felt myself open up tonight
And I laughed way too loud and everybody noticed
You were the only one in the room who saw

And I wish that window in the front
The one that faces Massachusetts Avenue

I wished it'd opened on its own
And we could have flown out on the wind of that moment
And leaving all the trouble
And aren't you ready for a window to open?

Just let it come and when it does try not to run
Just let it come and when it does try not to run

Cover art for Mass Ave lyrics by Tanya Donelly

From Tanya's Bandcamp: "Co-written with Dean Fisher...with whom I have created many songs and two children. Dean is my most constant (and convenient) musical partner and trusted ear. I love the linear chug of this song, the forward motion. The lyrics came easily for this one, inspired by a strange evening of small but important moments. True story."
