Are You Still Wild?
02:41
|

|
Are you still wild as the wind, are you free as the breeze
Stand in rain and sun, marvel at the wilderness
The place where you work, so much sick time
Walking in real love, golden, so long ago
Are you still wild

My Broken Heart
02:46
|
|||
|
Call a home phone that's long gone
Hold me tight through summer's end
I will never find real love
Midnight,
My broken heart
Joy at mother, absolute now, this expensive meal
We always meet in the wind
The internet is permanent
Lay down in a field and cry your eyes out

Computer Life
03:13
|

Vicious drunk with the eyes of a spider lost inside an online casino
Is the magic really gone if the coins always been palmed?
Were you destined to be embalmed like it's none of your business?
Bloodsport night watching lightning bugs fade
Youth and beauty and cheap sentimental dates
You're talking all the time repeatedly walking by
I got an active computer life but it's none of your business
I reach through space and time for a memory of sunshine
I got an active computer life but it's none of your business
Space and time

Talking in the Dark
01:57
|
|||
|
Talking in the dark and laughing through the Sundays
I wish you hadn't moved away
Emerald Bay memoirs, a house on a hill above a shore
I'd use the search to find you now, but I wouldn't want to be found by myself anymore
Since years of penury and boredom have made me trashy
I'm not the carefree artist that you knew
From talking in the dark and laughing through the Sundays
I wish you hadn't moved away

Too Late for Love
03:32
|
|||
|
Walk to the top of the stairs and turn around
It's too late for love
I am so much older now, I am so much colder now
Neon creases in the good times, dance your life away
Say a name in midnight's stillness, sleep your life away

You'll Walk Home Alone
02:13
|
|||
|
Fluorescent emptiness in the parking lot behind the Hess
Watch my watch, smoke pyramids, the clerk thinks I'm a broke degenerate
You were supposed to be my ride
I'm too young and drunk to drive
I guess someone changed your mind
Now I'll walk home alone knowing you'll walk home alone someday
Summer grass autumn moon, I walk along the train tracks and the backyards wanting you
Permanent loneliness, I was born to wander like a ghostly penitent
You were supposed to be my ride
Guess you found weed and got high
I'm dancing in the moonlight
Now I'll walk home alone hoping you'll walk alone someday

Betrayal at Pine Ridge
02:20
|
|||
|
Can't believe my eyes you found someone new
Left me behind, standing like a fool
One hand on the chain link I watch you from above
Watch you swim around him, watch you fall in love
Though the years blow through me, it's like I'm still there
Towel over my shoulder, gray electric air
I can't believe my eyes, I found someone new
I'll try to be kind, but I'll betray them too

I Hope We Meet Again
04:13
|
|||
|
Your bright red jacket, cloud of clerks
We pass each other, off/on to work
I hope we meet again somewhere far away from here
From the jagged shadows cast by glassy ziggurats
Everywhere I walk I'm tailed by the specter of my failed marriages and terror that we'll never meet again
Maybe I had a chance, maybe I threw it away
Maybe everyone you meet loves you the same

Here Comes SuperRutters
01:41
|
|||
|
I hate change and I can't change and here comes super rutters anyway
Galaxies end, lovers part, your parents age
Fortune comes and ocean leaves, permanent
Galaxies end, lovers part, your parents' age
Fortune comes and leaves turn gold, permanent
Oh God, hold me tight beneath sodium arc lights
My automatic life, I can't change, permanent
