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
