These United States – Preface: Painless Lyrics 15 years ago
From the booklet

Preface: Painless
You looked so pretty in that long, tall dress
Pistol for a princess
Approaching Portland, senses pointed West

You can never really arrive

One woman, one man
Such plans catch as catch can
One-off girl, one-track boy
One face to ransack Troy.

You can never really arrive
You can never really arrive

Red eye, throw dice
It's hard to know when you can't live life twice
Turned on and on, and on and on and on
Remember when you had the whole world won?

But you can never really arrive
You can never really arrive
You can never really arrive
You can never really arrive
You can never really arrive
