about

Originally recorded in 2013. Pete's vocals re-recorded and remixed in 2022.

lyrics

What are those lights on top of that hill?
Never saw 'til that sleeping pill kicked in
I've got thick skin
You've got to break when the thing don't need fixing
Boredom makes the time go slow
TV forces us to go nowhere
Vacant stare
Brakes off on the big hills for a dare

Hey, these were fitted with no brakes
Ride 'em or die
But it's okay
Replace you with plastic and metal and plasma
And throw you away
For someone to find and rebuild you again

A furnace forging golden rings
Only promising the things you need
20 seasons just wondering where that highway leads
These are the chains that you can't see
Strengthened by complacency and greed
Let's get free
Last one to the moon has to make tea

Hey, these were fitted with no brakes
Ride 'em or die
But it's okay
Replace you with plastic and metal and plasma
And throw you away
For someone to find and rebuild you again
Hey, these were fitted with no brakes
Ride 'em or die
But it's okay
Replace you with plastic and metal and plasma
And throw you away
For someone to find and rebuild you again
