WORDS FROM KRISTIN:
"This one was originally called "Flying Bernie" because when I brought it to practice, I was playing a pretty simple guitar part and so I asked Bernard to "fill in the blanks" with his part. As a result, the finished version of the song is pretty much a bass solo. Which I like."

"Flying"
(written by Kristin Hersh)

Wig out on me
One more time, I swear
We'll take this outside
We have found some pretty places
You think you'd just take the rest in stride
Wrong!
But if I'd known fucking with a payphone
Would get me this
I would have tried sooner
Why can't I sleep in here?
Bury me, bury me inside him
Familiar faces never lie
They think they know what's coming
Wrong!
But if I'd thought keeping us apart did any good
I would have died sooner
I make you so sad, what can I do...?
I worry so bad, what can I do...?
I make you so mad, what can I do...?
I want you so bad, what can I do...?
Wig out on me, I don't mind
I swear, by now I almost like it
This place is fascinating when you're here
But when you're not
It's not
But if I'd known leaving every home
Would get me here
I would have gone sooner
I make you so sad, what can I do...?
I worry so bad, what can I do...?
I make you so mad, what can I do...?
I want you so bad, what can I do...?

Don't worry, dance in the road.
