about

“Out the City” is about packing up the cellphone on a camping trip in the country, and the honey-voiced Carroll enjoys his communion with nature so much that he calls it “so f__king sublime” and himself “so f__king content.” This one shows off the keyboard skills of Dakota Hoeppner.

lyrics

Chorus:
Diving down into that great pacific monolithic sheen
I’m finding that it’s hard to breathe from salty frozen ocean squeeze.
If it’s only that I want to feel so easy, still at peace.
Rolling way out of the city, really fills me with belief.

Out today, cellphones are away. And it’s we by the sea.
Splashing sparkling beams. Finally we’re finding every
reason to unwind and it’s so fucking sublime.

Chorus:
Diving down into that great pacific monolithic sheen
I’m finding that it’s hard to breathe from salty frozen ocean squeeze.
If it’s only that I want to feel so easy, still at peace.
Rolling way out of the city, really fills me with belief.

Two days, seems to be the time it takes to forget.
All that bullship swimming in my head.
Awaken to a chilly morning tent and I’m so fucking content.

Every road and every wind. Every peak along the drive.
Scars and potholes left behind are gone.
Every rush of summer air. Every fall from camping chair.
Every pit thick with despair moves on.

Chorus:
Diving down into that great pacific monolithic sheen
I’m finding that it’s hard to breathe from salty frozen ocean squeeze.
If it’s only that I want to feel so easy, still at peace.
Rolling way out of the city, really fills me with belief.
