Lost in the Pack

(Anastasio/Marshall/Herman)

There’s a little cave out back where I can go to hide
And when I’m there I always phone you up to say goodbye
Somehow I can never seem to find the words I seek
Or maybe it’s just that the signal is too weak

Or maybe it’s that satellites are really hard to find
And my tiny dish was never properly aligned
The words I want to tell you just get lost up in the sky
Or maybe I just don’t want to say goodbye

I’m so far gone
I’m barely here
Caught in between
I’m nowhere near
I’m far beyond
Lost in the pack
So far behind
I can’t come back

There’s a special stretch of road I drive to clear my mind
A river crosses underneath then back a couple times
Then it finally makes a turn to where I cannot say
Maybe it leads me back to you someday

I’m so far up
I’m out in space
Can’t see ahead
I’ve lost my place
I’m so far out
I’m in again
So long as you remain my friend

So far gone
I’m barely here
Caught in between
I’m nowhere near
I’m far beyond
Lost in the pack
So far behind
I can’t come back
I’m so far up
I’m out in space
Can’t see ahead
I’ve lost my place
I’m so far out
I’m in again
So long as you remain my friend
So long as you remain my friend
So long as you remain my friend
