Just keep drifting but still can't explain
Stop counting the playing cards
See a brother in the gutter you reach out your hand
That the love you feel you carry inside can be passed
Stop reading the weather charts
Homesick as an astronaut
And whose heartbeat's electrical?
Where are you going to alone?
We feign sickness with our modern joy
How the love we feel we carry inside can be passed
Bad bone marrow, a bald little boy
What gage measures miracles?
But the love we feels he carries inside can be passed
Some cold science, some glean astroplanes
There's no system, there's no guarantees
But you try, I know you do, you still talk to your plants
He lay still, his mother kissed him goodbye said, comeback
Ask how are you getting on, alone?
Ask how are you getting on, alone?
Some drink cosmopolitans
But even western medicine
I can't tell where the camera stops
Some wander the wilderness
It couldn't save Danny Callahan
Controlled chaos, confused energy
