Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Kenny and Linda on the way to Chelan
Transmission's shot, no back up plan
Will they hitch a ride, or get into a fight?
[Verse 2]
Moved to the West Coast, packed up their things
The winters are grey, now so are the dreams
They tried to make it all right
[Verse 3]
All the little wishes have run dry
Made it to the water, waded in the lies
When we felt the heat, couldn't turn it into fire
Too caught up in our own desires
[Verse 4]
Said 'I do' in the month of May
Said 'I don't' just the very next day
Will they try again, or is it doom for them?
[Verse 5]
Moved to the city, where hippies run wild
Everything's white, now so are the smiles
They tried to fight a good fight
[Verse 6]
All the little wishes have run dry
Made it to the water, waded in the lies
When we felt the heat, couldn't turn it into fire
Too caught up in our own desires
[Verse 7]
We're split right in half, it's making me crazy
A two-headed brat tied to the other life
[Verse 8]
It's a family feud
The red and the blue now
It's truth against truth
I'll see you in hell
I don't mind, I don't mind
[Verse 9]
All the little wishes have run dry
Made it to the water, waded in the lies
When we felt the heat, couldn't turn it into fire
Too caught up in our own desires
