AM Taxi – Central Standard Time lyrics

[Verse 1]
Between the alley and the one-way sign
We disappear when the sirens chime
All the infidels stand in line
There's a burnt out car that used to be mine
Come together when things get dark
Between the shadows and the getaway cars
[?] in the thunderstorms
The sinners and saints of the Center Street park
I don't sleep at night anymore
Unless the furniture blocks all the doors
Outside they're singing
I hear it ring through the cracks in the walls and the floors

[Chorus]
Central standard, standing still
Has anyone got the time?
If you don't know by now, you never will
I hear the truth between the lines
I wish I could've got to you somehow
I wish you were the last thing on my mind
Left her on a broken carousel on central standard time

[Verse 2]
We come together when the pieces fit
I'm choking on every word I spit
Any chance to leave or split
I don't want to be left with any of it
I don't sleep at night anymore
I know we talked about it before
Give me the patience while I tip this waitress
To sweep me up off the floor

[Chorus]
Central standard, standing still
Has anyone got the time?
If you don't know by now, you never will
I hear the truth between the lines
I wish I could've got to you somehow
I wish you were the last thing on my mind
Came in on a broken carousel on central standard time

[Bridge]
I don't sleep at night anymore
I know we talked about this before
Give me the patience while I tip the waitress
To sweep me up off the floor

[Chorus]
Central standard, standing still
Has anyone got the time?
If you don't know by now, you never will
I hear the truth between the lines
I wish I could've got to you somehow
I wish you were the last thing on my mind
I came in on a busted carousel on central standard time
Central standard, standing still
If you don't know by now, you never will
I wish I could've got to you somehow
I wish you were the last thing on my mind
I blame it on a broken carousel in central standard time
