He said: History is a pile of debris
And the angel wants to go back and fix things
To repair the things that have been broken
But there is a storm blowing from Paradise
And the storm keeps blowing the angel
backwards into the future
And this storm, this storm
is called
Progress

 When you’re with me
 I’m a thousand times happier than I could ever say
 What does it matter
 What price I pay

"She’s got forty acres of her own land, hunts what she could and grows what she can
Sleeps with a lever action .44, she ain’t got no use for a man no more

Hard work, horse and blood
It don’t pay to lose, when the West is Won"

"But the summer sun is rolling low, and I've a mind to fly.
Leave all of this goddamn wreckage, for a clear northern sky.
Broken Glass in the Sun, I'll be missing you by one.
Whiskey wet me thru, I'll be stone drunk by two.
And the night howls through the trees, and I'm on my knees.
But I'll be face down by four, my tears drying on the floor.
Yeah I'll be face down by four, my tears drying on the floor. "

 “Get Outa Here If You Don’t Know
 Casanova is just being punished for going
 To Desolation Row”
