Lyrics

Supine in shade of an old Prairie Cascade
Cheek chalk-full of Bubble Tape
I was livin' like a king
I dog-eared every other page of a Dupont Registry and a new Eastbay
Hot joy flooded all my veins
Summer '93
These moments seem so few and far between
It can't all be sublime and
Can't be all awe-inspiring
You can't stripe every drive
Or split the seams
But I'm feeling broken hearted
From all our hardened hearts that
Suppress our trauma 'til we smoke and shriek
In violent scenes
Three drinks in me upstairs at Plan B
Warsaw was like a fantasy
And I was livin' like a king
The Polish kid with blunt-cut bangs spun Wu-Tang Clan into Wicked Games
Hot joy flooded all my veins and
I began to weep
These moments seem so few and far between
It can't all be sublime and
Can't be all awe-inspiring
You can't stripe every drive
Or split the seams
But I'm feeling broken hearted
From all our hardened hearts that
Suppress our trauma 'til we smoke and shriek
In violent scenes
I'm just now well-adjusted
Been pissin', moanin', fussin'
It's been half a life of sufferin' me me me
Elastic and trusted
This heart been passin' muster
Expandin' exponentially
For Ruthie Pauline
It can't all be sublime and
Can't be all awe-inspiring
You can't stripe every drive
Or split the seams
But I'm feeling broken hearted
From all our hardened hearts that
Suppress our trauma 'til we smoke and shriek
In violent scenes
