Lewis & Clark - Comfort Inn Lyrics
I am the reason that you runPiss drunk with the one,Giving faith to youYou say you drank her eyes like wineThey played like violins,Led you to the truthThe medium she paints withHas blossomed in your eyesLike the freedom songsThat slaves sangTo drown away their criesShe's taken your heart from youThe city it holds a certain smellGets trapped inside your lungs,Gives you peace of mindShe holds a piece of your mindAnd says you'll have it backIf you stay with her awhileThe harpist chord she plays,She plays without a missYou have felt nothing like itSince the days that we were kidsThe art of confusionKept our feelings hidShe has opened you up somehowNow your drink doesn't call your nameYou have given up destructionFor a brand new gameShe's leaving for the heavensYou'd better catch her if you canSome images are sure to shake you upBlessed is the manWho hasn't had enoughI am sure you will tryAnd press your luckBut she will bring you down,From the ninth cloud to the groundShe will write you sonnetsOn a napkin stained with kicksYou'll say you haven't got yours,She will show you what you've missedAnd point to a man in the corner,Clenching his fistsWasting his life awayYou will feel better if you sleepThe sandman's heroinWill bring you deepShe will be waiting there for youTo take your withered hands,And in her hands she'll keepShe will tell you storiesOf those singers in her dayBefore those fakers cameAnd took it all awayShe will smileAnd her eyes will seem to say"Do you rememberWhen times were good?"Nothing will ever be the same againYou will never find a closer friendShe's leaving for the stationYou'd better catch her if you canThe midnight madness will eat you upChew you up and spit you outShe will pick you off the groundOff the sidewalks of this townShe will take you to the riverAnd she'll baptize youWith her graceYou will find a cure to sadnessIn the valleys of her faceShe will make something of beautyFrom this filthy placeAnd lay it by your bed.You will feel like you've just been bornDeep inside youThere's this aching warmthShe's leaving for the cityYou'd better catch her if you can
