lyrics

I remember when we would run around
like chickens with our heads cut off
and scare those neighborhood brats with aluminum bats
such criminal cops

And I'll never forget my first true love
no matter how hard I try
Her minimal polka dot dress
still hangs in the closet of my mind

(Chorus)
I hear the best things happen
when you least expect them
so clear my better ideas
are the ones that came from your rejection

It's a miracle we all heal
like a wheel--it's instinct driving us on
dirt roads of imagination
we go west we're the restless ones

(Chorus)

(Break)
Shit got weird and you're to blame
You made it weirder
What's it like to cause such pain?--
"It feels like power"

(Chorus)
