Hard Wired Songtext
von Shakey Graves

Well water was wine back on moon mountain time
Where I watched your loving expire
While I lay close to you
As the lace on the shoe
And that′s when I knew
We were hard-wired

Well you bumbled like bees
And I boiled like the seas
While you led where no one would follow
So I hid in the mud
Of my Catholic blood
And let that minute hand race towards tomorrow

Well you are as you came
Oh sweet bliss and cocaine
Yeah, just a match begging for fire

Yeah, and I am as I was
Sick with mercy and love
Well, I'm sorry enough
I was hard-wired


So sit by the still
Oh, drink up your fill
Tell all of them people your problem

Yeah, well those friends were so true
When you were twenty-two
But now you′ve got nothing in common

But they are as they came
Mostly bliss and cocaine
Yeah, just a match begging for fire

Yeah, and I am as I was
Sick with mercy and love
Well the truth always was
We were hard-wired


So go brace for good times
Oh, do what feels right
And send me the bill when you tire
'Cause I am as I came
And I'll still be the same
I got nothing to play
Mhm, I was hard-wired
Yeah, ′cause I am as I was
And I stay here because
The truth always was
We were hard-wired
