Deadweight

Beck

Deadweight

on a highway unpaved

goin' my way

you're so alone today

like a ghost town I've found

there's no relief

no soul

no mercy

is it true what they say

you can't behave

you gamble your soul away

measuring a jinx of this life seems like the gristle of loneliness

don't let the sun catch you cryin'

don't let the sun catch you cryin'

like an ice age

nice days on your way

sipping the golden days

on a riptide

freak's ride

sleep inside

a parasite's appetite

oh say can't you see

the chemistry

the parasites that clean up for me

death never hails

recycled cans

get well cards

to the hostage vans

don't let the sun catch you cryin'

don't let the sun catch you cryin'

you're a deadweight

right straight

on your way

sunk in the midnight shade

skys burn

eyes turn

learning to counterfeit their disease

in this town where we roam

we bluff our souls

on canteen patio

drink the latest draft

the music drags

the music drags

the music drags

don't let the sun catch you cryin'

don't let the sun catch you cryin'
