Lyrics

The memories don’t fade

Surprising fate for days

You elegantly wasted

Before you lost your spark

Took acid in the park

While living in a basement

Now is it strange I can’t connect?

It isn’t strange but I could check

Walked around to where we kept the box of wires

And lately

CHORUS:

I know once it’s lost

It’s never found

I need it now

The grid is buried in the ground

Hopelessly down

I read the parking rules

As Amsterdam unspooled

And trucks sped on ephedrine

The things we used to see

The sandhogs in the street

The chickens in her bedroom

Now is it strange I can’t connect?

It isn’t strange but I could check

Walked around to where we met the first time

Overwhelmed and

CHORUS

A country house in June

It’s happening too soon

Your book of revelations

We can’t unmake the bed

We used the chair instead

And called it a vacation
