lyrics

You searched for gold and only found porcelain, bitter tears and nasty cuts, rags soaked in gasoline. Girls they come and go, you say but I don't know: looks like they've left their traces in your face and broken home. Don't tell me that you're happy with this. You leave home just to go back to make sure this is it but there must be more to life than a house, a car, a wife and the certainty that everything's alright. You've spent a lifetime holding hands. You've been what's left of tradition and what's left of Silent Spring. Standard dances and routine, still life and closing scenes with your pats on her back and her kisses on your cheek. Face the facts: your life is just a poem written on the pages of the bible laying next to every bed in every new hotel. You only hang on to memories of things you've never had or experienced. The medication has stopped working. Here comes the pain again.
