"Listerine"
(written by Kristin Hersh)

Listerine covers your tracks
Doesn't do shit for the facts
I'm lying on the couch
Scary memories fill my mouth
How did I love a breaking thing?
How did I sleep through a kidnapping?
How'd I trust a band who'd leave me one by one?
I only wanted the spark
I only wanted your hearts
It's hard, it's hard and stupid
I'm the one who let you do it
I only wanted the high
Wasn't much more to my life
I couldn't wait to come down
There's nothing here but the ground
I couldn't wait to come down
There's nothing here but the ground
I couldn't wait to come down
There's nothing here but the ground
I couldn't wait to come down
There's nothing here but the ground
I couldn't wait to come down
There's nothing here but the ground
I couldn't wait to come down
There's nothing here but the ground
I couldn't wait to come down
There's nothing here but the ground
I couldn't wait to come down
There's nothing here but the ground

WORDS FROM KRISTIN:
- "I really like this song. One of my friends was in the studio when I recorded this and got really upset. But it's just one of my 'Oh-my-stupid-life' songs. It's not melodramatic. It just says it."

Fireworks for you in the ozone snow.
