about

Song number 14

An interesting thing about today’s song is that it features eight overdubs of guitar using a device called an “E-Bow”. It really gave the song an ethereal sound. As to the lyrical content, I can only assume it has something to do with the fact that I’ve been binge watching Deadwood. Every time I see someone test a nugget of gold by biting it, I cringe. I really like the end result…

lyrics

I'm wide awake, the words bend and break away from me

Wishing for more time, breaking teeth on gold
The merry-go-round goes round and round, spinning cold

I'm revealing fakes, the humors shake me to my very bones, so old

Wishing for more time, breaking teeth on gold
The merry-go-round goes round and round, spinning cold

This fight takes too much from me
This night steals the fire from my soul, so old

Wishing for more time, breaking teeth on gold
The merry-go-round goes round and round, spinning cold

Breaking teeth on gold, breaking teeth on gold, so old
