Kristin Hersh Caffeine Lyrics

Caffeine Lyrics

The best of us puking
The rest of us not doing so well
You can tell by the way we look over your shoulder
Watching for the next big thing
Caffeine in the blood, caffeine on the brain, bad well water
Set off a chain reaction, a desparate set of principles
I wish we were lonely
I wish we were boring
It’s so much easier
You’re driving and I am your backseat shadow
The radio keeps playing
The radio keeps saying ’nothing lost and nothing gained’
But if you don’t like it then leave
What if you won’t take it from me? 
I can soothe you
I feel your heart beating
I hear your soft breathing
