Eureka

It was a strange request and they'd just barely met

But somehow he didn't seem like a stranger

She knew what her sister always said about the angels

How they show up when you never expect them

She never expected

When she was mostly in the phone booth at the end of her rope

Spending half her time just hope-hope-hoping

Then someone finally showed up with a shot at the coast

So she gets in the car and they go

Goodbye Central Valley, hello Shasta-Trinity

You look even better than you did in the pictures

He didn't say much she never thought it was love

It was mostly about the adventure

When they get to Eureka they crash with his friends

They had five in one room they had four in one bed

She had sixty-eight bucks she said she only had ten

Acid management checking all the balances

There was this whole long scene with some mountains and some lakes

And most of it was real but some of it seemed fake

Try not to judge me by the pictures that I take

I've always had some pretty shaky hands

He never came out and said it, he just kind of implied it

The dashboard almost swallowed them whole

He didn't say much she never thought it was love

It was mostly about the control

They put the speed against the sedatives futures and derivitaves

Some deep freedom getting tangled up in tenements

You gotta put the negatives up against the benefits

Crisis management getting out ahead of it

But the guy that she left with ain't the things that he said he is

He's a dick when he drinks and she's scared of his friends

He went through her purse and he let her keep ten

He never wants to do anything

There was a guy at the door there was a gun on the bed

There was a dog on the rope that had a cross on its head

Let me introduce you some deep freedom

We're just kind of getting used to it

No gods no kings let freedom ring

No faith no sin no hymns to sing

She just wanted to see some things

No gods no kings let freedom ring

He never wants to do anything

My country 'tis of thee sweet land of liberty

Sleeping in the parking lots of pharmacies

No gods no kings let freedom ring

He never wants to do anything
