lyrics

"Avoid too many
When drinking at the root;
Women’s witless company
Can only pollute...

I thought she’d be the teeth
To sharpen my heart’s voice
And find instead I’m ground beneath
The nettles of my choice.

Denied both friendly solitude -
Of every thought the source -
And what I’d hoped to have accrued:
The brilliance of discourse.

Too much a fool to tell
Much brute thrusting insistence
Can no way in hell
Bridge the deeper distance.

Hello old lonely road
Old smoky wraith
Old melancholy load.
Hello old evening
Fragrant with alcoholic seasoning."
