I’ve seen it done like 
The way the dogs do 
I’ll think it over 
We’re standing into 
Your phony life but now it’s all dry 
Can’t take it you will see 
Not more than others 
Your phony li-hi-hi-ife 
Like I don’t hear them, but I’ll tell you something else 
When we get to the desert it’s out out OUT!

What we left in the past 
It tears me up

Pulled into a truck stop 
My luck is over 
The plan is failing 
I think not!

Chorus 4x with lyrics 

What we left in the past 
It tears me up 

Verse 8x with lyrics 

It’s not what you’re used to 
In the middle of nowhere 
I’m an old man 
I love to wander distantly 
Your phony life and now it’s all dry 
If you think that I had myself controlled 
Alt. Verse (with Verse) 
That’s a lie
