The feds closed Silk Road so I'm out in the cold I don't know anyone Lights out in south beach coming up on seven weeks Need a pill to sleep so I drive up to Stapleton But even I'm not dumb enough to enter the Chambers No smokes so I sniff my coat and wait for the early boat My veins feel electric It's technically NYC but dear Christ does it get lonely The panic sets in 'cause nothing's happening Days of the same old sh** But I'll miss all of it Baby's got cataracts Her coat was shining black Now it's grey and patchy The sunshine caught in her eyes is from a different time
Had a big yard in Barnegat She's shambling history She sleeps on rubber sheets She's deaf but she listens to me Our parents got us a dog so we could learn about loss The slow education While I'm away on tour she sniffs beneath my door The panic sets in 'cause nothing's happening Days of the same old sh** but I'll miss all of it Here's what it felt like When I was 25 Still had my family Missed them already The panic sets in Though nothing's happened yet Days of the same old sh** But I'll miss all of it
