Central Time
[Verse 1]
Driving just to hear the preferable songs
You loop with every passing day
Taking note of every tempo you're on
The blinker lights will fall in phase
(They'll fall in phase)

[Pre-Chorus]
The sun won't set for a long time
Golden hour, never far
The moon results in a strong tide
Fewer stars

[Chorus]
Sometimes I know love gets hard to find
In a flyover state, that's just a state of mind
Out late several hours in the night
So whenever you call, remember Central Time

[Verse 2]
Righting of the indefensible wrongs
Accrued with every passing day
Chanting with the insurrectional songs
And hoping things will fall in place
(They'll fall in place)
[Pre-Chorus]
The sun won't set for a long time
Golden hour, never far
The moon revolves in a strange line
Where we are

[Chorus]
Sometimes I know love gets hard to find
In a flyover state, that's just a state of mind
Out late several hours in the night
So whenever you call, remember Central Time

[Chorus]
Sometimes I know love gets hard to find
In a flyover state, that's just a state of mind
Out late several hours in the night
So whenever you call, remember Central Time

[Bridge]
And ain't no way around it
Since this time zone shit been founded
Stretched my pockets, switched accountants
Postal if I'm not next to you
Bi-coastal I'm just one flight away
I just pray the plane never tidal wave
Pray you never crash when you type my name
Well fuck a text message just call me back, I need to FaceTime
Two hours ahead, don't waste time
Speed racer, she don't need to break lines
Just a payphone
Meet up on my hotline
Sixty minutes we be actin' like it's Dateline
Take that shit straight into a date night
Take all night, we get home late night
Then I take a redeye, now I'm sitting stateside
And I can only think about what a great night
[Outro]
And I can only think about what your face like
And I can only think about when you call me
Baby, take time
Baby, take time
Baby, take time
