hum vee sobriety

a mushroom cloud by the side of the road
if you ever light up, i'll be there
i would stop you but
i'm missing a limb

no hands to reach out and take
the fire from your lips

buried belonging to the sand
the medicine man, that vital organ
he is running down the well
but the well's run dry

war across the sea
see the land mines in me

quantum physics inside a place
where there is no place for them
confused and searching
we must find that one time when we all had a soul

you are the casualty
and i am your phantom limb
