Meatwagons

An urban song about city life, restlessness, and finding true connection.

urban liferestlessnesslovetruthgritty

Verse 1

Meat wagons scream all over town

It's hard to get any rest

I just dropped back to pick up what I left

The weathervane is still

In a sky full of rain

And there's a guilty conscience at every turn

Chorus

Where are the days

When we stood together

Where are the days

When we were last civil

And where are the days

When it didn't seem so cool

To be such a big fool

Verse 2

It's a jumble of offices

Cigarettes and beer

You can only afford

To live quite near

There's a red man

With a red guitar, he disappears

Behind a red brick wall

It's a store front backyard

Outro

The minute I laid my eyes on you

I knew, you'd be the one

To make me want to be true

You'd be the one to

Make me want to do

What I supposed to do
