Description
so there's this band here in LA, the Warlocks; they are awesome: The Velvet Underground, Jesus and Mary Chain and Spacemen 3 all thrown together into a big mess. and they look like the Hells Angels at Altamont. Unfortunately, it seems like everyone around them is a wreck: decadence for decadence sake. Anyways, I was thinking about a particular girl I know who is going down fast while making the scene. Wrote this on piano, but it's noisy, fuzzy, and reminiscent of the Velvet Underground. Not sure if this is the right genre for this song.

Lyrics
It's not a feeling you wear
Like your shoes or your hair
It's not the clothes you buy
Or the books you read
Not the places you go
Or the people you meet
Not the bands that you play
Or the drugs that they take
(Chorus)
I can't live forever
I can't live this way
I can't climb a mountain
High
It's not the hows and why's
That will keep you alive
Look at you now
You've been up all night
It's not the bands you meet
Or the drugs they do
Not the records you play
Or the shoes on your feet
(Chorus)
I can't live forever
I can't live this way
I can't climb a mountain
High
Too late
She's coming down...
(Chorus)
I can't live forever
I can't live this way
I can't climb a mountain
High
Too late
She's coming down...
Like your shoes or your hair
It's not the clothes you buy
Or the books you read
Not the places you go
Or the people you meet
Not the bands that you play
Or the drugs that they take
(Chorus)
I can't live forever
I can't live this way
I can't climb a mountain
High
It's not the hows and why's
That will keep you alive
Look at you now
You've been up all night
It's not the bands you meet
Or the drugs they do
Not the records you play
Or the shoes on your feet
(Chorus)
I can't live forever
I can't live this way
I can't climb a mountain
High
Too late
She's coming down...
(Chorus)
I can't live forever
I can't live this way
I can't climb a mountain
High
Too late
She's coming down...
