Dregs
Live Sessionography
Notes: Written around 1996. Brian recounted that "it's a song whose energy would not translate easily to tape." In every recording I've heard, the chorus "Oh, do you..." is incredibly hard to understand, but they're always saying the same thing. Help would be appreciated. |

Crushed on the boundaries Stained on the inside This will be the time Swallow the memories Stained on the edges This will be my crime If I could discover the feeling anew I would be surprised Another mistaken arrangement pursued This moment suits me fine Oh do you keep at This again Or do you reset Or (more total) I can't conquer the dregs that want me down Break me open and drink to wash it down Only to reach Only to find Only to push myself away Never to know Never to stay Never to take or want a thing I am set up Don't belong here Spoiled myself again I always wanted Never to own it This will be the time Into the sameness Feeling no substance Can't be free of this Oh do you keep at This again Oh do you reach that Or more total I can't conquer the dregs that want me down Break me open and drink to wash it down Only to reach Only to find Only to push myself away Never to know Never to stay Never to take or want a thing I am set up Don't belong here Spoiled myself again Oh do you keep back To your skin Oh do you reach that Or more total I can't conquer the dregs that want me down Break me open and drink to wash it down Only to reach Only to find Only to push myself away Never to know Never to stay Never to take or want a thing I am set up Don't belong here Spoiled myself again |
