Been a long while now coming up
Thought we were past it, thought we’d patched it up
Thought the title had passed hands
Thought we’d had enough
But the Sun’s gonna go ahead and tag right up
and we dont understand what we’re standing on
and we sure come in blind
With our timing
So I’ve culled what I can’t tame
I have taken all that I can take
It got bad enough
I thought that I would leave . . .
I wish you could take that right off!
All that shit that rips you right up
Then you’d know that we been taught all this from Day One . . .
from Day One
Same old town and yer
parsing through
Signs of live and die for you
There’s a million ways
You’re falling thru
The cost of your mind
And some may say that
you lack the stuff
and you burn it down and
clack your cuffs
But you may have to toughen up
While unlearning that lie
I’ll go find the tap wire
I’ll go put the pathfinder on waltz
.....
Well, can I get a rewind?
Just this once, if you don’t mind
I don’t know who I am without ya
’cause I feel a wild one now comin’ on
I told you to be patient
I swore that I was wrong
So why can’t we both just
now get to understand
from Day One . . .
All this was dry land
Yes you have just always
had your Band
But you get sad enough
because it’s all you seek . . .
Hop on it’ll all be gone!
You don’t have to take so very long . . .
and u can’t have it for a song
And that’s why I have rattled on
from Day One . . .
from Day One
