Оригинален текст
I started out a little tightly wound
like a rocket shot up out of frozen ground
dirt in my nails, a forest in my head
seems like every message i got said
burn it, break it
She took me in like a broken bird
in a moonlit house in a single word
we built a cave, or was it a nest?
she did all the driving and all the rest, but
I'm not there at all
though i shall recall
what she said to me
on her doorstep
She likes my dad, he knows gordy howe
he had such a temper, guess who's got it now
[the following two lines are in the song,
but do not appear in the liner notes]
watch me explode as we misunderstand
everything that's said on this fiber optic strand
I'm not here at all
thoug i shall recall
what she said to me
on her doorstep
