It was one of the 5 gloomy days of the year here in southern Arizona. They make me gloomy. These pictures came up on their own, images from a hard time in each of my lives which I combined into something that never happened, but it feels like it did.
D A C G
Winding through a tiny sliver of West Virginia
It was late and we needed gas in the worst way
Lost in the dark between Ohio and Pennsylvania
Got in after 11, had to leave before the break of day
We’ve been here before, and we got through
maybe because we didn’t know what else to do
it’s a shame, but no one’s to blame
that’s how it’s always been for me and you
So sick I was hallucinating
Tingling all over and sweaty, I was a mess
Desperate for something, I still don’t know what
I called out for you, and then I fell asleep I guess
I’ve been here before and I got through
maybe because I didn’t know what else to do
it’s a shame, but no one’s to blame
that’s how it’s always been for me and you
You’re gone but I’m still here
Alone and empty, lying on the floor
I’m lost in the dark and sick to death
And we both know I’ve been here before
I’ve been here before, I’ll get through
maybe because I don’t know what else to do
it’s a shame no one’s to blame
that’s how it’ll always be for me and you
