Like you never read a lover with a narrow eye
You never swallowed heavy on the sly
You never cast yourself in a movie
All the faces shaded smooth
Like you never needed little arrows driving home and you

Never thought of the seeds you'd sown

You never wondered how the playboys do it

Tried to run, fell into it



I know this road up and down



Like you never faked the fever of a disco queen

You never shook yourself by a string

You never pushed it when the engine rattled

Fought the heaving on the eve of battle



I know this road up and down
