Where do you go with your broken heart in tow?
And what do you do with the left over you?
And how do you know when to let go?
Where does the good go?
Where does the good go?

Look me in the eye
And tell me you don't find me attractive
Look me in the heart
And tell me you won't go
Look me in the eye
And promise no love's like our love
Look me in the heart
And un-break broken, it won't happen

It's love that leaves and breaks
The seal of always thinking you would be
Real happy and healthy, strong and calm
Where does the good go?
Where does the good go?

Where do you go when you're in love
And the world knows
How do you live so happily
While I am sad and broken down
What do you say, it's up for grabs
Now that you're on your way down
Where does the good go?
Where does the good go?

Look me in the eye
And tell me you don't find me attractive
Look me in the heart
And tell me you won't go
Look me in the eye
And promise no love is like our love
Look me in the heart
And un-break broken, it won't happen

It's love that leaves and breaks
The seal of always thinking you would be
Real happy and healthy, strong and calm
Where does the good go?
Where does the good go?

Look me in the eye
And tell me you don't find me attractive
Look me in the heart
And tell me that you won't go
Look me in the eye
And promise no love is like our love
Look me in the heart
And un-break broken, it won't happen

It's love that leaves and breaks
The seal of always thinking you would be
Real happy and healthy, strong and calm
Where does the good go?
Where does the good go?

It's love that leaves and breaks
The seal of always thinking you would be
Real happy and healthy, strong and calm
Where does the good go?
Where does the good go?

Where does the good go?
Where does the good go?
Where does the good go?
Where does the good go?
Look me in the eye (where does the good go?)
And tell me you don't find me attractive (where does the good go?)
Look me in the heart (where does the good go?)
And tell me that you won't go (where does the good go?)
Look me in the eye (where does the good go?)
And promise no love is like our love (where does the good go?)
Look me in the heart (where does the good go?)
And un-break broken, it won't happen (where does the good go?)
Where does the good go?

    Love. It reminded me of Willow and Tara from Buffy the Vampire Slayer the TV Show so that's all the thoughts I can make. It's like your partner it comes in a box that says: ''Fragile! Handle with care!"

its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard

Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.

Corpse I Fell In Love With
Gadjits, The
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.

Holiday

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.
