Well, Wes,
If we're going to go there, then I guess "Endless Wire" was written for me. It is a perfect description of me.
"... I ain't got nothing to hide.
My life is an endless wire.
I got both feet on the ground.
I ain't got no one for hire.
I ain't got a thing to show.
My lives have all expired.
So don't go fooling around
And set my wheels afire.
Down in the dark of a burnt out soul
There's a few good second hand dreams...
Deep in the dark of a heavenly night with you.
Dark in the black of a bottomless hole
There's a few good second-hand scenes...
Deep in the dark of a heavenly blue where the sea runs green.
I ain't got nothing to give.
My life is an endless rhyme
My love's a paperback dream
I ain't got nothing but time.
I ain't got a thing to show.
I don't know my own name;
So don't go fooling around
and set my wheels aflame...."
Ironic how Gord manages to put us in touch with the deepest parts of ourselves, isn't it?
Stay loose, eh?
