Current recording: Doomed To Live

Wildman / Marsden / Downing / Downing · Lyrics: Wildman
From the 1996 sessions · Reconstructed 2026 · Doomed To Live, Side A 

Well it's crazy
But it's true
Well I'm crazy
Well I'm crazy over you

In the morning
Don't want to see the Sun
In the evening
Once again I'm on the run

I don't know who you think you are
Acting like a superstar
But everything is real bizarre
And there you are

Well it's crazy
To treat me so unkind
And it's crazy
How you live on in my mind

I don't know who you think you are
Acting like a superstar
But everything is real bizarre
And there you are

And you're gonna be a souvenir
Of what I saw and conquered here
And everything that seems so clear
Is atmosphere

I don't know who you think you are
Acting like a superstar
But everything is real bizarre
And there you are

And everything that seems so clear
Is atmosphere

About this song.

Work
Original

An accusation that keeps collapsing into obsession. The song tries to turn desire into conquest and possession, only to discover that contempt is no cure for attraction.
