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.
Cut yourself in conversation, cut the line to make me feel alive
Cause you know I'm not alive
An leave me with your complications, take your life you feel like taking mine
Leaving god we stand in line, not alone
Nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, not going
I'm not kissing you goodbye
On my own, I'm nothing, just bleeding
I'm not kissing you goodbye
Trust to take the right to leave me
Waiting on the dark clouds for the rain
Praying lightning strikes the change
As history gets lost an as I took that final breath I felt alive
Leading god to stand in line
All alone
Nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, not going
I'm not kissing you goodbye
On my own, I'm nothing, just bleeding
I'm not kissing you goodbye
Don't let me go, don't say goodbye
Cause know that I'm not alive
Don't let me go, don't say goodbye
Don't let this love die
Don't let me go, don't say goodbye
Cause know that I'm not alive
Don't let me go, don't say goodbye
Don't let this love die
Nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, not going
I'm not kissing you goodbye
On my own, I'm nothing, just bleeding
I'm not kissing you goodbye
I'm not kissing you goodbye
I'm not kissing you goodbye
Cause you know I'm not alive
An leave me with your complications, take your life you feel like taking mine
Leaving god we stand in line, not alone
Nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, not going
I'm not kissing you goodbye
On my own, I'm nothing, just bleeding
I'm not kissing you goodbye
Trust to take the right to leave me
Waiting on the dark clouds for the rain
Praying lightning strikes the change
As history gets lost an as I took that final breath I felt alive
Leading god to stand in line
All alone
Nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, not going
I'm not kissing you goodbye
On my own, I'm nothing, just bleeding
I'm not kissing you goodbye
Don't let me go, don't say goodbye
Cause know that I'm not alive
Don't let me go, don't say goodbye
Don't let this love die
Don't let me go, don't say goodbye
Cause know that I'm not alive
Don't let me go, don't say goodbye
Don't let this love die
Nowhere to go, I'm not leaving, not going
I'm not kissing you goodbye
On my own, I'm nothing, just bleeding
I'm not kissing you goodbye
I'm not kissing you goodbye
I'm not kissing you goodbye

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.

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.
