Along The Way Lyrics - Singles - Bob Mould

Scratching at the surface 

Keep the conversation light 

Lest I seem offensive 

Wouldn't want to be ostracized 

I don't want approval for what I say 

Only an honest reaction 

All I get are looks of confusion 

I guess I lost you somewhere along the way 

I found out some time ago 

That people can live with their lies 

Finding ways to bury bones 

In graves full of alibis 

I don't give a damn what anyone thinks 

Every time I try to reveal the truth 

All I get are blank expressions 

I guess I lost you somewhere along the way 

Bullshitting me, bullshitting you 

To the point where no one cares 

With everything so far away 

From where it ought to be 

I guess it's safer there 

Who knows the difference any more 

Is this how life is going to be from now on 

I could never dance, so I guess I'll take my chances 

I've got nothing to hide, to hide, to hide, to hide 

Good things come to those who want it 

But no one likes what remains 

Like the drudge that washed up from the ocean 

And spoiled your finest day 

And there beneath the moon 

You can only see the shadows 

Of the sun from the other side 

It seems the stars have blurred your vision 

I guess I lost you somewhere along the way
