dear dar(lin') your mom (my friend) left a message on my machine she was frantic
saying you were talking crazy that you wanted to do away with yourself
I guess she thought i'd be a perfect resort because we've had this inexplicable connection since our youth and
yes they're in shock they are panicked you and your chronic them and their drama
you this embarrassment us in the middle of this delusion
if we were our bodies
if we were our futures
if we were our defenses i'd be joining you
if we were our culture
if we were our leaders
if we were our denials i'd be joining you
I remember vividly a day years ago we were camping you knew more than you thought you should know
you said "I don't want ever to be brainwashed" and you were mindboggling you were intense
you were uncomfortable in your own skin you were thirsty but mostly you were beautiful
if we were our nametags
if we were our rejections
if we were our outcomes i'd be joining you
if we were our indignities
if we were our successes
if we were our emotions i'd be joining you
you and i we're like four year olds we want to know why and how come about everything
we want to reveal ourselves at will and speak out minds and never talk small and be intuitive
and question mightily and find god my tortured beacon
we need to find like-minded companions
if we were their condemnations
if we were their projections
if we were our paranoias i'd be joining you
if we were our incomes
if we were our obsessions
if we were our afflictions i'd be joining you
we need reflection we need a really good memory feel free to call me a little more oftenWhere there's wrong there's always right
That's what's kept us on this road tonight
Sand as far as the eye can see
Ain't it funny how the world is just like you and me
Come with me to Mexico
We can laugh at the love we used to know
Yes, I'm ridden with a fear
But please answer when I call you dear
My friends think that we're all wrong
Another muse for another tragic song
But whoever wrote a plan
Was a fool when it comes to a woman and a man
Come with me to Mexico
You can drive and I can take it slow
Yes, I'm ridden with a fear
Please answer when I call you dear
I should hate you but I don't
You should love me but you won't
Isolation is my plan
Woman's gonna make a man
Come with me to Mexico
Stop listening to that damn radio
Yes, I'm ridden with a fear
But please answer when I call you dear
