Gold Mine Gutted |
It was Don Delillo, whiskey neat, |
And a blinking midnight clock |
Speakers on a TV stand |
Just a turntable to watch |
Only smoke came out our mouths |
On all those hooded sweatshirt walks |
We were a stroke of luck |
We were a gold mine that gutted us And from the sidelines you’d see me run |
Until I’m out of breath |
Living the good life, I left for dead |
The sorrowful Midwest |
Well I did my best… |
To keep my head |
It was grass stain jeans and incompletes |
And a girl from class to touch |
But you think about yourself too much |
And you ruin who you love |
Well all these claims at consciousness |
My stray dog freedom |
Let’s have a nice clean cut |
Like a bag we buy and divy up And from the sidelines I see you run |
Until i’m out of breath |
And all those white lines that sped us up We hurried to our death |
Well I lagged behind… |
So you got ahead |
