faster wheels

Posted in nonce by maggie on March 4, 2011

don't come here looking for what's gone new
i turned it all back in
already spent what they gave for it
that and what i owed you too
all up in the ways of the smoke
nothing to it, nothing to touch
not that i will ever get to believe how it feels
that dream's got legs, yeah
but the horizon's got it some faster wheels

mercy was cooked up for forgetting things
it don't work when you're so hard
excuse me please, this must be yours
this rearrangement of a piece my head sings
then just as soon does well enough to forget
never anybody's own fault, always a wreck
my eyes know how to hide whatever my heart reveals
that dream's got legs, yeah
but the horizon's got it some faster wheels
