Sonic Youth Daydream Nation Eric's Trip ----------- [Lee] {Whispered: Achooooo Braaaaancafest} I can't see anything at all All I see is me That's clear enough, that's what's important To see me My eyes can focus, my brain is talking It looks pretty good to me My head's on straight, my girlfriend's beautiful It looks pretty good to me Sometimes I speak Tonight there's nothing to say Sometimes we freak And laugh all day Hold these pages up to the light See the jackknife inside of the dream A railroad runs through the record stores at night Coming in for the deep freeze Mary: a simple word, are you there in the cold country? Your eyes so full, your head so tight Can't you hear me? Remember our talk That day on the phone I said I was the door, and you were the station With shattered glass, and miles between us We still flew away in the conversation My cup is full, and I feel okay The world is dull, but not today She thinks she's a goddess She says she talks to the spirits I wonder if she can talk to herself? If she can bear to hear it? This is Eric's trip We've all come to watch him slip He's slipping all the way to Texas Can you dig it? (Eric says "The sky is blue...") I see with a glass eye The pavement view A shadow forming, across fields rushing Through me to you We tear down our the world, and put up four walls I breathe in the myth I'm over the city, fucking the future I'm high and inside your kiss We can't see clear But what we see is alright We make up what we can't hear Then we sing all night Shattered pages and shattered lights See the jackknife; see the dream There's something moving over there, to the right Like nothing I've ever seen -- Source: _Sonic Life_ biography and the original recordings.
