this song is wonderful. it makes me very sad though.

i heard that it is about the Aboriginal stolen generation.

i love the lines, "I thought that I could pick you up and roll you like a dice" and, "hitchhikers thumbing on the verge of the lonesome highway"

brilliant.

this, and "surviving" are my favourite on "Dream Days At Hotel Existence."
