Hard Wired

Well, water was wine back on moon mountain time

Where I watched your loving expire

While I lay close to you as the lace on the shoe

And that's when I knew we were hard-wired

Well, you bumbled like bees and I boiled like the seas

While you led where no one would follow

So I hid in the mud of my Catholic blood

And let that minute hand race towards tomorrow

Well, you are as you came

Oh, sweet bliss and cocaine

Yeah, just a match begging for fire

Yeah, and I am as I was

Sick with mercy and love

Well, I'm sorry enough

I was hard-wired

So sit by the still, ooh, drink up your fill

Yeah, tell all of them people your problem

Yeah, well, those friends were so true when you were 22

But now you've got nothing in common

But they are as they came

Mostly bliss and cocaine

Yeah, just a match begging for fire

Yeah, and I am as I was

Sick with mercy and love

Well, the truth always was

We were hard-wired

So go brace for good times, ooh, do what feels right

And send me the bill when you tire

'Cause I am as I came

And I'll still be the same

I got nothing to play

Mm, I was hard-wired

Yeah, 'cause I am as I was

And I stay here because

The truth always was

We were hard-wired
