Dark Neon - Wilco

I was sitting safely, across the road

From a rusting scaffolding, picking my nose

When a bird spoke up from high on that dark neon

He said, «I bet theres some things that you should come clean of»

Ohhhh I didn’t know

Ohh where to begin

Like you dont not know

Ohh I set the emotion

I was beating up babies, babies I mean

That don’t look like babies, but they’re babies to me

I was looking around for my very own best friend

Couldn’t help feeling things would come to an end

I always let you go

And then you let me back in

This is a status quo

Oh nobody wins

I was feeling sorry

So sorry for myself

I was trying to take it easy, but that wasn’t helping

Birds spoke up, this time I think it was a dove

He said I bet theres some things that you should come clean of

Ohhh that’s so its so

Oh you look through my skin

Ohhh how did he know

Oh and what was he in

Keep fooling myself

I keep fooling myself

I keep fooling myself

I keep fooling myself

I might need your help

I keep fooling myself

I might need your help

I can’t just keep fooling myself

I oughta let you go

Hun you let me back in

It’s the status quo

Nobody wins

Ohhhh!
