Been a nice trip, is this our stop?
I'd leave the stage but the curtain won't drop
The chemicals took my nerve
I've given up what the saints preserve
The push pull, the sturm and the drang
I can't play a lick but I'm strumming along
Sing it with me, you look uptight
Now is that a yawn or are you ready to bite?
DON'T YOU COME NEAR ME NOW
DON'T YOU COME THROUGH THE WALL
I CAN'T LET GO OF THE SCENE
I CAN'T STOP HOLLERING UNCLEAN
Been a nice trip as hinterlands go
I took the hint and I swallowed it whole
The chemicals color the facts
On your mark, get set, relax
The negatives double, double that again
I did the math, I need a bath
Sing it with me, the widows might
Now is that a yawn or are you ready to bite?
DON'T YOU COME NEAR ME NOW
DON'T YOU COME THROUGH THE WALL
I CAN'T LET GO OF THE SCENE
I CAN'T STOP HOLLERING UNCLEAN
DON’T YOU COME NEAR ME NOW
I’VE NEVER NOT NEEDED YOU MORE
CURSED WITH A SENSE OF PLACE
I WANNA SEE THE LOOK ON THE OLD MAN’S FACE
Bells are ringing in the town of the terminal heartache
Bells are ringing, is it Easter or the start of an earthquake?
Been a long trip, the hinterlands know
You took the hit then I quit
Now I'm sick as a dog but I’ll still fetch
You won't make it stop but you pity the retch
And how do you love?
We both know what your kids are made of
60 parts water, 40 parts guile
I've been found, I wanna drown
CURSED WITH A SENSE OF PLACE
I LEFT THIS TOWN IN DISGRACE
DON'T YOU COME NEAR ME NOW
I'VE NEVER NOT NEEDED YOU MORE
BUT I CAN'T LET GO OF THE SCENE
I CAN'T STOP HOLLERING UNCLEAN
Bells are ringing in the town of the terminal heartache
Bells are ringing, is it Easter or the start of an earthquake?
