Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Your empathy
Inside of me
All I want
Your empathy
I want you
Inside of me
And I know
Your empathy
Baby you're so good and I'm so bad
You get everything I never had
Baby you're so big and I'm so small
You get everything
I get nothing at all
Your empathy
Inside of me
And I want you
Inside of me
But I don't want
Your sympathy
I don't need
Your sympathy
Baby you're so good and I'm so bad
You get everything I never had
Baby you're so big and I'm so small
You get everything
I get nothing at all
Pretty princess, pretty fascist
Tell your bitch to shut up, yeah
Pretty incest, pretty fascist
Tell your bitch to just shut up, yeah
Pretty incest, pretty fascist
Tell your bitch to just shut up
Inside of me
All I want
Your empathy
I want you
Inside of me
And I know
Your empathy
Baby you're so good and I'm so bad
You get everything I never had
Baby you're so big and I'm so small
You get everything
I get nothing at all
Your empathy
Inside of me
And I want you
Inside of me
But I don't want
Your sympathy
I don't need
Your sympathy
Baby you're so good and I'm so bad
You get everything I never had
Baby you're so big and I'm so small
You get everything
I get nothing at all
Pretty princess, pretty fascist
Tell your bitch to shut up, yeah
Pretty incest, pretty fascist
Tell your bitch to just shut up, yeah
Pretty incest, pretty fascist
Tell your bitch to just shut up

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
About Kurt? I think so. He loved his empathy :*(....sob sob; RIP Kurt!!!
