out west from coffeetable album by marbling

old men step on my toes on the train
sit backwards facing me
speak a language familiar to me

my life is pleasantville is cassettes
i write another anthem to white plains as i travel west
where the skies open wider than central park
where it rains it pours

and when i'm out west
there will be enough space
men won't step on my toes
in my house, we don't say grace
(we bless)

in my house
and my house out west
bernie sanders is president

in my apartment
on the water
mac demarco knocks on my apartment door
and we listen to grateful dead together

you can be the savior
arriving on the a train
walking alongside rockaway beach boulevard
maybe stopping my stomach pain

no tylenol when there are no trees
the forest is the expanse of the sea

we watch the mets and play gamecube
the tv's power button is loose

in my apartment out west, i won't let anyone step on my toes
