about

Originally by Sebadoh, and written by Lou Barlow. I claim to own nothing.
I think it was recorded at the same session I recorded screaming under.

lyrics

make it easy and ill hold it against you
im on a string dangled right in front of you
make it hard and ill run away
keep tomorrow as i kill today

try to figure just what i deserve
and slashing lines all across the earth
patience only makes the dream come true
everything i see i hold to you

tell me
this is it, the truly great thing
the love you hoped to find
any doubt will simply wipe itself out
as were rising deeper the first and last time

pick me up and drop me down again
every day i feel confusion and pain
love is what weve all been waiting for
something powerful to smash it all apart

you cant love if youre locked up tight
dream of perfection nothing ever seems right
all the world will tell you youre all wrong
big, big deal if youre all wrong
