lyrics

They had lutefisk under dim lights.
They had beers from Alaska.
They discussed the films of Terry Gilliam.
All those Captains they knew in the
rows of houses on the hill.
Neither had meant to make a friend tonight.
But now they were.

"This is where I will live some day."

They had lutefisk under dim lights.
They ordered another round of beers from Alaska.
They way these houseboats sink in spring.

"they're cutting off your benefits."
"I don't know how I'll make it back."
Must have been like that scene in Brazil,
he said. He was wary of comparing his life
to the movies. Hadn't meant to.
But now he was.

They're tearing down all the mansions,
they're burning all the wood.
They're popping all our tires,
they're closing all the roads.

"I don't know how I'll make it back."

about

Freeway Park Seattle, Washington

Much like the city park it is named after, Freeway Park the band aimed at being a structured, brutalist space with flashes of grace and beauty, but more often than not ends up dirty, slightly dangerous, and full of drunk people.
