Down to the Bone

[Verse 1]
Center line alone
North of Montecito
Summertime and wheat toast and us both
They say the earth is burnin'
Oil fields are churnin'
And we don't know the first thing where to go

[Pre-Chorus]
But some pain is right
Some country stations lead you out into the night
Where love is just a song

[Chorus]
So we burn all the pages
Settle all the wagers
But I can't erase it when it's down to the bone
Starve out the traces
To search in strangers' faces
But mastеrs and sages, they don't know
They'll nеver know

[Post-Chorus]
No, mm

[Verse 2]
Now the children are screamin'
The walls become the ceilings
A dyin' breath of freedom is all that we can hold
And any way you cut it
You'll have to lose the covet
We're mazes, it amazes me the summit's just not close

[Pre-Chorus]
Just ain't the same
When we're not in danger, we're just in it for the taste
And love is just a waste

[Chorus]
So we burn all the pages
Settle all the wagers
But I can't erase it when it's down to the bone
Starve out the traces
To search in strangers' faces
But masters and sages, they don't know
They'll never know

[Outro]
Mm
