Neighbors - Lucius

I always lock the door, 'cause you never know for sure

Who your neighbors really are, I was suspicious

I made my way outside in the California skies

But I couldn’t feel the sunny disposition

Oh, bet you can imagine how I’m sinking

They were standing side by side, just like mugs along the shelf

With their glazing-over eyes, they couldn’t help it

And no matter how I tried, I just couldn’t feel alive

I just stepped right into line, they never felt it

Oh, bet you can imagine how I’m sinking

Oh, oh, when the signal’s always busy, baby

But like Jane Doe and her John, all of us just carried on

I was looking for somebody who could shake me

Oh, I always lock the door 'cause you never know for sure

Who your neighbors really are, maybe they’ll save me

Oh, bet you can imagine how I’m sinking

Oh, oh, when the signal’s always busy, baby

I’m still reeling here, maybe some sign will appear

I guess I hope it comes

It’s like I’m twiddling my thumbs, sometimes I can’t believe

I get so numb

You think I would’ve figured it out by now

You’re not the only one

Oh, bet you can imagine how I’m sinking

Oh, oh, when the signal’s always busy, baby

Oh, won’t somebody shake me?

Oh, oh, signal’s loud, but it’s still busy, baby
