Crushing the last long American night.

Trying to figure out what went wrong
You just slipped something into my palm and you were gone

We marked Truth Or Consequences on our map*
A voice drifted up from the radio

Whatever the deal's going down, to this one I'm sworn

The worms in the barrel, the hanging sun
Those first nervous evenings of perfume and gin
The lost smell on your breath as I helped you get it in
