about

A song written by my old scene-companion Andrew Sweeny when both of us played cabaret-style shows called YAWP! with host Jake Brown. I love this song, have had it in my head for years, have played it for years, and happily connected with Andrew a few months before the album release, where he gave me his blessing to put this wonderful song out there into the world again.

lyrics

did you ever feel too far gone?
like nothing can touch you, just move along.
got no luck and got nowhere to go
got a tin heart and these highways of gold.

bitter night, hear a lady purr
traffic on main street and it's all a blur
your heart and soul, she is in distress
deepest fear, loneliness

we're perfect, we're such a mess
there's no way, no way, no way out of this

here we are, once again,
stuck in blind suffering
the sweetness of the earth, where silence reigns
subway station interchange

did you ever feel happy for no reason
lost in your love, devotion and being?
and we may come to the end of the road
and still find there is miles to go, miles to go

we're perfect, we're such a mess
there's no way, no way, no way out of this
there's no way, no way, no way out of this
there's no way, no way, no way out of this
