The Moth Lyrics by Reaching Quiet

In The Shadow of The Living Room

2002

[Yoni Wolf]
I can remember
Listening to the band
In your car, waiting for you
To get your check from work
That’s when the moth
First came in through the window
And tried to nuzzle into
My hair at first
(I remember I was thinking
About the first time I got to a hundred
Eating ice cream with my dad
In the back of the U.D.F)
I thought it odd that the moth
Was still in the car when you got back
Even though the windows were open
And he stayed on your foot
While you pressed the gas
All the way to Walnut, Iowa, never moving
Even though you tried to shake him off
Over and over again
And now he stands
On your rear view mirror
With his wings spread
Although he never takes off
He can be your mascot
I’ve already got my housefly
On the bathroom mirror
Waiting for me at the loft
