lyrics

Where is the black cat who came to town?
held the mirror to your thorny crown
“you can hustle into virtue
what they do not know can’t hurt you”
oh oh oh
i remember him well

and as far as i could tell
he wanted everything dead
and wanted the sound of silence
(or an older world)
but with one hand in my slacks i’m sure that
nostalgia’s a luxury that I know i can’t afford

no no no
no
no no no
no no no
no no no no


it was lonely on lithium road
There was nothing much for company
‘cept the truth that you don’t want to hear
everything gets old
if you dream of it too long
(before it gets cold, move on before it gets cold)
so i picked up a hitchhiking man
with a face just like a whisky cask
and some sugar coated memories
And the distance of a folk tale in his eyes
But they’re not coming back
those days
Aren't coming back

no no no
no
no no no
no no no
no no no no

it’s an impenetrable mystery
In the purgatory of uncertainty
hard to ape a strong sycamore stance
when you’re stuck to the same phantom ground
that you’ve always been
out of time like you’ve always been

but today i ain’t complaining
i’ve got that outlaw feeling
of the hunter turned the hunted
now crossing the only frontier that i’ve ever known
Sorry black cat
I’m going on
