lyrics

Y'all were living like the Royal Trux down in South America.
Checking in on your unemployment,
With a fake IP address, living on a lost position felt good.
My life was like a cup that I filled, to the top and then a little more still,
I had a woman that kept me well, and another in the next neighborhood.
Living in between two stations felt good.
I never cared much for my kin,
I never needed more than a couple of friends but when you showed up that day on my stoop,
I said that was a very stupid thing to do
I mean what do you think You're going to get out of me
She used to worry, that there is no fun that could black out the memory, of all the fucked up shit that we've done
She wanted me to tell her she was wrong
You were looking like the ghost of yourself,
Your eyeballs were screaming help
Goddamn you goddamn you goddamn you
Goddamn the mother and the father who made you
Whenever you were in a state,
You couldn't help but to give her a ring
Although you broke her like a buck for change
Sometimes you'd wonder if she smelled the same
And if living on a lost position, would feel good
Sometimes I worry that there is no love
Stronger than the memory
Of what has been taken
I don't know how you out live a child
I guess you sort of wait around for a while
But it does something to the taste
Of every breath you still have to take
And yet here we are still living on I was leaning on the window sill while the shit cooked in an Oslo hotel
Obama on the TV set,
Making some half-hearted threat
Leaning on a lost position in this world
It ain't only the pure products Of America that go crazy
Some of us just get the fuck out of dodge
So one of your little experiments killed somebodies baby I loved her like a sister
And you were my best friend
