From the recording Tears on Mahogany
Going back in "the" studio.
Lyrics
Tears on Mahogany
Tears on Mahogany. Rust on the steel.
This place was somethin’. When it was real.
Tears on Mahogany. Rust on the steel.
This place was somethin’. When it was real.
Another two day wake, to find a piece of me to steal.
I’m a lot more lucid when I can’t feel.
I’m stealing my own soul, a few days at a time.
Funny what this junkie will do for a rhyme.
I’d like a house in The Hamptons, and the jet set feels.
I got tears on mahogany and rust, rust on the steel.
Rust on the steel, tears on mahogany, when it’s way too real, way too real, when it’s way too real.
Coming back here, after all these years, I got new tears for the harmonies.
My reflection stops… at the edge of the drops… lying next to the strings…
Tears on mahogany, it’s a thing, it’s a thing.
When it’s way too real, and it’s way too real.
I say it’s way too real.
