- "36000" is about the experience of an artist who wants to make it to the top of their profession. It takes a certain amount of sacrifice and tunnel vision to keep making opportunities for yourself, and keep putting your work out there. Sometimes, our tunnel vision is so narrow that we forget to take in the other parts of life as they go by. This song is written from that feeling. The feeling of focusing so much on one goal that you don't even notice your life going on in the background.
Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
36000 and a house on fire
Trusting in the strength of some broken copper wire
Her parents didn’t want their baby to move far from home
She doesn’t know the city and she’s never been on her own
(Prechorus 1)
She says it’s just for a year
It’s all worth the fear and the pain that she feels
She says she’s hungry for this
That nothing brings her the same bliss that it brings
(Chorus)
And she knows
She knows (x5)
She’s got something to prove
(Verse 2)
54000 and a house on fire
Livin with somebody with a boss that she admires
She said she’ll call the man her husband on the 4th of June
Can’t be any closer with a baby coming soon
(Prechorus 2)
She says he keeps her awake
But nothing was worse than the heartache
She keeps her calendar clean
One of these days she is sure to be seen
(Chorus)
(Bridge x2)
So she gets a better job in the city cuz she knows what she’s worth
She tells the kids she’s leaving on a red eye at midnight
Visit on your father’s dime
And as soon is she is ready she’ll be coming home
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
68 million and a house on fire
Sold another series and she’s desperate to retire
She can’t fight away the feeling of not good enough
She’s waiting for the day when somebody calls her bluff
(Prechorus 3)
She saw her daughter in May
They went out to lunch, she had nothing to say
She says she wants to stay close
But burning is all that she knows
