lyrics

It's the hook on the line, got me quiet by design, got me wondering: which way the wind blows?
It's the catch in the rye, got me scratching my eye, got me wondering: how to kill this fever?

And it's a no good claim I stake, it's a fools run: go until it breaks

It's the heat of the day, got me weak in every way, got me wondering: how to amend our trespass?
It's the promise of the night, I'll indulge just to alight in the moonshine: I'll find a silver line

Cause it's a no good claim I stake, it's a fools run: go until it breaks

Crawling back in the dirt, close enough just ain't enough to kill our fever or fill this emptiness
it's the questioning mind got me begging for a sign got me wondering where the hell the time goes

And it's a no good claim I stake, it's a fools run: go until it breaks
it's a no good case I plead, it's a fools run: go until it bleeds

Spinning out in broad daylight, it will come as no surprise but I'm still wondering: how it's all so temporized?
Looking back and looking up, the idea that we could stop leaves me laughing til I'm doubled over

Cause it's a no good claim we stake, it's a fools run: go until it breaks
it's a no good case we plead, it's a fools run: go until it bleeds

Falling back to earth
