Today's Obsession

 
 
You are the hole in my head
I am the pain in your neck
You are the lump in my throat
I am the aching in your heart
We are tangled
We are stolen
We are living where things are hidden

You are something in my eye
And I am the shiver down your spine
You are on the lick of my lips
And I am on the tip of your tongue
We are tangled
We are stolen
We are buried up to our necks in sand

We are luck
We are fate
We are the feeling you get in the golden state
We are love
We are hate
We are the feeling I get when you walk away
Walk away
Well you are the dream in my nightmare
I am that falling sensation
You are not needles and pills
I am your hangover morning
We are tangled
We are stolen
We are living where things are hidden

We are luck
We are fate
We are the feeling you get in the golden state
We are love
We are hate
We are the feeling I get when you walk away
Walk away
Walk away

You are the hole in my head
You are the pain in your neck
You are the lump in my throat
I am the aching in your heart

What a cool song. John Doe has one hell of a great voice. X are playing sold out shows out here in L.A. at the Roxy the next couple of nights. I have my ticket for Friday night. May be the last great intact band slogging it out. Thanks Sal for all that you do. Here's to better things in 2017.

No one writes male/female duets like John Doe. Excellent

Sal:

Great song, featuring the underrated Kathleen Edwards as well.

Cheers,
