The Blue Route Lyrics

Cover art for The Blue Route lyrics by Walkmen, The

"It used to be some kind of joke And all the debts you’ve come to know"

"Eleven blackbirds in the sky A hundred fireflies for miles Your tired eyes are open wide What could you do But keep replaying through the days That have brought you to this place You wandered down an open road and you kept going"

I see this song as shock of self-awareness after a time of despair and aimless wandering.
