    Story Behind the Song
    The doppler effect is best understood when you think of an ambulence driving towards you
    the siren sounds high-pitched as it approaches because the sound waves are being compressed by the vehicle, but when it passes, the waves decompress in the wake, so the siren sounds lower pitched. I've lived right by a big highway in VA all my life, so it's natural for me to equate the sound of passing cars with the sound of passing time.

    Lyrics
    The Bracelet, handcuffed to my past
    handcuffed to my past
    The anchor, the wind and road
    I'd drive, like time, so fast
    thought I felt a gust of wind
    felt a gust of wind

    Chorus: I view this wreckage from afar
    and there's so much to be done
    in this land of abandoned barns
    we can't put it off for long

    Where we lay, my head between your legs
    head between your legs
    Palms wrinkled, full of hair
    gasps waves pressed by air
    I heard your voice drop low
    I heard your pitch drop low

    Repeat chorus
