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.
Hey I am sure to fall this time around, yeah
and I could look you in the eye, but you never show your face
Something sticky in your ears, will turn to logic
and what you reiterate is meaningless to me
Save yourself because your dying slowly
Say goodnight before you ever say goodbye
Tore the buttons off your coat to keep the wind out
Build your head against the sky, to touch the ground beneath
Held a candle to the sun to drown the twilight
but when you bruise you never bleed, no you never cry out
Save yourself because your dying slowly
Say goodnight before you ever say goodbye
Strong, carry on, carry me home
Serve your flesh, circuits unknown
Stitches sewn to leave me alone
Crane your neck 'til I crawl
Save yourself because your dying slowly
Say goodnight before you ever say goodbye
Does it make you sick?
The smell of daddy's sweat
The taste of daddy's spit
Crawl
Crawl

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.

This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
the knack for writing lyrics seems ingenious. adore it.
