From an empty room on the first floor
As the cars pass by the liquor store
I deconstruct my thoughts at this piano

And it's all that I can do to stay
With all the things I didn't say to you
Before you moved across the country


And from the burning building where I lay
As I watch the stars become the day

The L.A. girls are lacing up their sneakers
They run the boardwalks and the beach
This fish bowl life is all they need

It's everything I needed too
Until I heard the news


I'll send this message through the speakers
They told me that you moved
I'll cross this country on a frequency


I am slipping through
I am slipping through

I am slipping into the airwaves
And this is nothing new
You are slipping through my fingers

And into the airwaves
The statics where you'll find me


From the corner by the studio
The gold-soaked afternoon comes slow
I deconstruct my thoughts and I am walking by

And on third street the freak show thrives
Santa Monica's alive
But somethings not so right inside

Living with the news

I'll send this message through the speakers

They told me that you moved
I'll cross this country on a frequency


I am slipping through
I am slipping through
I am slipping into the airwaves

The statics where you'll find me
And this is nothing new
You are slipping through my fingers

And into the airwaves
The statics where you'll find me


So hang on
It's gonna be a hard day
So hang on

Don't panic, don't panic
There simply is no need


It's gonna be a hard day
It's gonna be a hard day
Don't panic, don't panic

We are hanging here
We are hanging here


I am slipping through
I am slipping through
I am slipping into the airwaves

The statics where you'll find me
And this is nothing new
You are slipping through my fingers

And into the airwaves
Into the airwaves


It's gonna be a hard day
It's gonna be a hard day
So hang on

Don't panic, don't panic
There simply is no need


It's gonna be a hard day
It's gonna be a hard day
Don't panic, don't panic
We are hanging here
(It's gonna be a hard day)

We are hanging here
(It's gonna be a hard day)
We are hanging here
We are hanging here
