r.e.m. - how the west was won and where it got us lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
blood from a stone, water from wine
born under an ill-placed sign
a stroke of bad luck, wrong place, wrong time
this flyer is out of line

[chorus]
the story is a sad one, told many times
the story of my life in trying times
just add water, stir in lime
how the west was won and where it got us
ahh

[verse 2]
the canary got trapped in the uranium mine
a stroke of bad luck, now the bird has died
a marker to mark where my tears run dry
i cross it, bless it, alkaline

[chorus]
the story is a sad one, told many times
the story of my life in trying times
just add water, stir in lime
how the west was won and where it got us
ahh

[verse 3]
i didn’t wear gl-sses because i thought it might rain
now i can’t see anything
i made a mistake, chalked it up to design
i cracked through time/sp-ce, godless and dry
i point my nose to the northern star
and watch the decline from a hazy distance

[chorus]
the story is a sad one, told many times
the story of my life in trying times
just add water, stir in lime
how the west was won and where it got us
ahh
