Motorcycle Drive By

Summer time and the wind is blowing outside

In lower Chelsea and I don't know

What I'm doing in this city

The sun is always in my eyes

It crashes through the windows

And I'm sleeping on the couch

When I came to visit you

That's when I knew

That I could never have you

I knew that before you did

Still I'm the one who's stupid

And there's this burning

Like there's always been

I never been so alone

And I've never been so alive

Visions of you on a motorcycle drive by

The cigarette ash flies in your eyes

And you don't mind, you smile

And say the world, it doesn't fit with you

I don't believe you, you're so serene

Careening through the universe

Your axis on a tilt, you're guiltless and free

I hope you take a piece of me with you

And there's things I'd like to do

That you don't believe in

I would like to build something

But you never see it happen

And there's this burning

Like there's always been

I've never been so alone

And I've, I've never been so alive

And there's this burning

There is this burning, yi-yi-yi

Where's the soul I want to know

New York City is evil

The surface is everything but I could never do that

Someone would see through that

And this is our last time

We'll be friends again

And I'll get over you, you wonder who I am

And there's this burning

Just like there's always been

I've never been so alone, alone

And I've, and I've never been so alive

So alive

I go home to the coast

It starts to rain, I paddle out on the water

Alone

Taste the salt and taste the pain

I'm not thinking of you again

Summer dies and swells rise

The sun goes down in my eyes

See this rolling wave

Darkly coming to take me

Home

And I've never been so alone

And I've, never been so alive
