I see this as a song about death. He has too much work going on in his mind, a restless tumult. Everything has become banal, predictable. He has a loved one still anchoring him in this world. He wants to let it all go, run back to the spiritual wilderness. And I suppose he did about 7 years after this song.
thanks for posting 3 videos from Dirt Floor. I've spent years waiting for them. yes it's Trixie looking at her father making art/music on a dangerous place. the right screenplay to describe a situation that leads to death. I was waiting for buying the "Scrapyard" videotape but never found it. I've seen on Chris website (the one when he was still alive) some still pictures from another cheap video made during the Dirt floor era : he was playing banjo, had the same hairstyle. Ballpeen hammer ???
