Shakey Graves – Hard Wired lyrics

Well water was wine
Back on blue Mountain Time
While I watched your lovin’ expire
While I laid close to you
As the lace on the shoe
And that’s when I knew
We were hardwired

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

But are you are as you came
Mostly bliss and cocaine
Just a match beggin’ for fire

Yeah, and I am as I was
Sick with mercy and love
Well I’m sorry enough
I was hardwired

So baby sit by the still
Drink up your fill
Tell all of them people your problems
Those friends were so true
When you were 22
But now you’ve got nothing in common

Cause they are as they came
Mostly bliss and cocaine
Just a match beggin’ for fire

Yeah and I am as I was
Sick with mercy and love
Well I’m sorry enough
I was hardwired

So baby 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
Well I’ve got nothing to blame
Oh I was hardwired

Oh cause I am I was
And I’ll stay here because
Yeah, you know the truth always was
We were hardwired
