"Dead Melodies" by Beck off of the album "Mutations"
Let me know if any of the lyrics are wrong or if you notice any blips in the audio.
Where will you go
When this day is over
A gambler's purse
Lays on the road
Straight to your door
Snakes have gone crazy tonight
Winding their way out of sight
A laugh, a joke
A sentiment wasted
Seasons of strangers
They've come and gone
Doldrums are pounding,
Cheapskates are clowning this town
Who could disown themselves now
Engineer, slow down this old train
Cinders and chaff
Laugh at the moon
Night birds will cackle
Rotting like apples on trees
sending their dead melodies
to me

This song squeezes my heart into a tight little ball...the changes are so damned melancholy.
And multivitamins4all, you should be awarded a Medal of Honor for posting all this amazingness. Thank you!
