Ambulancer - Lee Ranaldo and the Dust

Last time that I saw you, you smiled and said you were dead

A blind eye to the water, anyway thatʼs what you said

I wonʼt call you a runaway, I donʼt call you a friend

Drop the past for the day-to-day, It all shakes out in the end

I call you t come back, when the stakes are high

Already dressed in black, baby yr tumbling in

The last time I saw you, you said that soon youʼd be dead

You heard the voices calling, the ambulance in yr head

Then all the lights were shining, the blood backed up in yr eyes

You couldnʼt translate the signals, the planetarian sigh

Iʼm calling you t come back, donʼt you say goodbye

All messed up in black, baby yr falling again

Last time: lost time / next time: divine

The road that leads you out is the same as the way back in

Yr pain is not in doubt but baby yr good in yr skin

Last time, next time, divide, decline

The spiders of time are calling, wrapping you up in their webs

The night is quickly falling, fast unraveling threads

What empty season?

Signpost to the divine?

What floating cloud had signaled that youʼd lost yr mind?

Yr caught in the abstractions, waiting to begin

Thereʼs no chain reaction, Baby yr good in yr skin

Everyone knows the answer before you do

Everyone hangs a light out in their head

Everyone got a taste of you

Everyone falls apart in the end
