Was that psychic right? Broken teeth, broken hands Chasing ghosts and counting sand Yeah I still have dreams, stumble through Johnston St Broken teeth, broken hands Blistered heat, flooded lands I still have dreams, what old Bruce said to me There would be too much to say In dreams we talk some way When I awake nothing remains So let's let it be Those last 4 words the only thing we got right Pick through the grief
