the world looks solid - but they say it’s full of holes
- though nothing stops moving long enough to really know
-
- that’s why lookouts are better than trails
- that’s why shells are better than snails
- that’s why i carry a pocket full of nails
-
- the dead are so still and beautiful
- the dead are so still and beautiful
- the dead are so still and beautiful
- the dead are so still and beautiful
-
- the critics all said that i’d never go far
- but here i am driving all alone
- in a little borrowed car
- listening to a tape of songs that I’ve made
- thinking what I’ll buy the day I get paid
- drinking driving
- singing at the top of my lungs
-
- pulling down the visor to hide the sun
- pulling down the visor to hide the sun
- pulling down the visor to hide the sun
- pulling down the visor to hide the sun
-
- maybe it’s me
- maybe i’m crazy
- maybe it’s me
- but it strikes me as strange that
- when i take a look through an open door
- i can’t look away i want to see more
- i keep on feeding what i know i should ignore
-
- you know i’ve been a bad boy
- touched what i was meant to destroy
- i’ve pissed without leaving the table
- i’ve drunk without reading the label
-
- you don’t know what you’ve got
- til what you’ve got is gone
- but even then it’s hard to be certain what it was
- full gauge falling temperature rising
- i think i see a service station on the horizon
- Better pull over and fill up while i can
-
- the clouds are building in the southern sky
- the clouds are building in the southern sky
- the clouds are building in the southern sky
- i think it’s going to rain before the day is night
