about
Inspired by time travel, Girl Cavedog is about a person whose life is repeatedly sidetracked by the comings and goings of a significant other who is a step out of time.
lyrics
I’d say you were circumspect.
But I can’t say today you get a lot of respect.
And I can’t say today that you knew right away
That today was today and you knew right away
What was up.
Hey, hey – you’re a step outta time.
And I can say today, that you’re a bit outta line.
But I can’t get away to say, “Get away!”
And the time’s not okay for you to wanna stay
Anymore.
Anymore.
I’ve got theories, maybe they’re memories.
You’re not here, but you will be sometime.
I’ve got memories, maybe dream theories.
You’re not real, but I’m still reeling.
I say something to you.
You say, “None of it is true.”
No way. I gotta say, I’m surprised.
And it’s no – not okay, keeping up with these lies.
I’m afraid it’s the day for you to go away.
But if you’re who you say, it’ll all be okay.
Evermore.
Evermore.
I’ve got theories, maybe they’re memories.
You’re not here, but you will be sometime.
I’ve got memories, maybe dream theories.
You’re not real, but I’m still reeling.
I’ve got theories, maybe they’re memories.
You’re not here, but you will be sometime.
I’ve got memories, maybe dream theories.
You’re not real, but I’m still reeling.
I say something to you.
You say, “None of it is true.”
I say…
