2:8<\/p>\n
From the speakers wedged in the corner over the barista a slow tune slipped out into the room, joining the noise of the patrons and the espresso machines yet somehow owning a distinct space in the atmosphere of the coffee shop. It was a new song by a band that had got its start on an amateur show at a local radio station and had never looked back once they’d move up and out.<\/p>\n
I’ve got time on my mind<\/em> I’ve miles to run<\/em> So why do I keep on going<\/em> I just wanna give up<\/em> Ain’t enough enough?<\/em> My mind says stop<\/em> So why do I keep on going<\/em> I just wanna give up<\/em> Christ I want to get off<\/em> Someone’s just driving you<\/em> Screw them all, fuck that noise<\/em> So that’s why I keep on going<\/em> I ain’t gonna give up<\/em> I ain’t gonna give up<\/em> Roll on up that fuckin\u2019 hill<\/em><\/p>\n The song slowed to its\u00a0 end and, as if everyone had been using the musical conversation as part of their personal narratives, the entire room lapsed into silence at the same time. Into that small but oddly profound moment of silence Gareth\u2019s voice flowed clearly through the small room. \u201cNo, I don’t fucking understand. Why don’t you just fucking explain it for once?\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 2:8 From the speakers wedged in the corner over the barista a slow tune slipped out into the room, joining the noise of the patrons and the espresso machines yet somehow owning a distinct space in the atmosphere of the coffee shop.

\n And time\u2019s never been kind<\/em><\/p>\n
\n And the road ain’t no fun<\/em><\/p>\n
\n Fighting the way the river’s flowing<\/em>
\n Why do I always fight the current<\/em>
\n And why do I always get burned<\/em><\/p>\n
\n But I know I never will<\/em>
\n I just wanna give up<\/em>
\n Roll on down the hill<\/em><\/p>\n
\n Don’t care shit ’bout that stuff<\/em><\/p>\n
\n My heart’s just full to the top<\/em><\/p>\n
\n Fighting the way the river’s flowing<\/em>
\n Why should I always fight the current<\/em>
\n I don’t want to always get burned<\/em><\/p>\n
\n But I know I never will<\/em>
\n I just wanna give up<\/em>
\n Roll on down the hill<\/em><\/p>\n
\n But I know you can’t back off<\/em><\/p>\n
\n Creeping all that you do<\/em><\/p>\n
\n They don’t mean shit to me<\/em>
\n I need to fight to be free<\/em>
\n Of them and their creeper toys<\/em><\/p>\n
\n Fighting the way it’s all flowing<\/em>
\n That’s why I always fight current<\/em>
\n Screaming as all I am gets burned<\/em><\/p>\n
\n I know that I never will<\/em>
\n I can wanna just give up<\/em>
\n But I\u2019ll roll on up the hill<\/em><\/p>\n
\n I know I never will<\/em>
\n We can wanna give up<\/em>
\n But we\u2019ll roll on up the hill<\/em><\/p>\n
