Another track from the January 2003 sessions with Todd Kreuzberg that was never completed...but once again I like this version and it fits right in with the "Loose Change" vibe...
lyrics
I headed on down to the Key West Island
For one last stab at a relationship gone bad
I come into town, my baby's living in a penthouse
Man I got no business bein' there
I would rather, drink muddy water
Truth is I don't really care to be where you are
You say you like hanging out with rich men
But that's not me baby I won't even pretend
And this is where we were born and this is where we died
You used to make me laugh now all you do is make me cry
Well we're drinkin' in the mornin', drinkin' in the evenin'
Drinkin' and talkin', ain't nothin' happenin'
Sometimes the best way to live with beasts
Is to just become like a beast yourself
I was 25, when she put me to sleep
I'm 29 I'm waking up with nowhere to go
I've been walking a fine line, stayin' sober
Keepin' my time lookin' for honey and clover
And this is where we were born and this is where we died
You used to make me laugh now all you do is make me cry
I was at the crossroads when you crossed my path
I followed you now I'm a stranger to myself
Oh blind desire red hot and burning I fled
From the wickedness of worldly ways to the comfort of your bed
Now I'm risin' in the mornin', countin' my blessings
Taking my fears I cast them out to the deep blue sea
My new life is right around the corner
I've been wondering where to go and I'm already there
And this is where we were born and this is where we died
You used to make me laugh now all you do is make me cry
