On a live wire right up off the street<br />
You and I should meet<br />
June bug skipping like a stone<br />
With the headlights pointed at the dawn<br />
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all<br />
<br />
And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues<br />
And we don't know just where our bones will rest<br />
To dust I guess<br />
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below<br />
<br />
Double cross the vacant and the bored<br />
They're not sure just what we have in the store<br />
Morphine city slippin' dues, down to see that<br />
<br />
We don't even care, as restless as we are<br />
We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts<br />
And poured cement, lamented and assured<br />
To the lights and towns below<br />
Faster than the speed of sound<br />
Faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope<br />
<br />
Justine never knew the rules<br />
Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls<br />
No apologies ever need be made<br />
I know you better than you fake it, to see<br />
(rpt 1)<br />
<br />
The street heats the urgency of now<br />
As you can see there's no one around
