The Way It Seems

Last night I heard you were going
Going for to stay
Bound for some other shore
Let your garbage lay
And now you're running backwards
Right into your grief
Gathering your weapons
Rippin' 'em with your teeth
But that's so unexciting
And that's the way it seems
Sooner we'll be done for
Somewhere in between

Slick and dark and hungry
It's the only game in town
Gambling in no-man's land
Rippin' faces down
The flame is shooting outward
Everywhere you are
The temperature is a-blazing
Turning tricks in cars
And that's so unexciting
That's the way it seems
Sooner we'll be done for
Somewhere in between
