[Verse 1] Well, water was wine back on blue mountain time Where I watched your loving expire I lay close to you as the lace on the shoe And that's when I knew We were hard wired [Pre-Cours] We bumbled like bees And I boiled like the seas While you led where no one would follow So I hid in the mud of my catholic blood And let that minute hand race towards tomorrow [Chorus] You are as you came, mostly bliss and c**aine Just a match begging for fire And I am as I was, sick with mercy and love I'm sorry enough, I was hard wired [Verse 2] So sit by the still Drink up your fill
And tell all them people your problems Those friends were so true When you were twenty-two Now you got nothing in common [Chorus] They are as they came, mostly bliss and c**aine Just a match begging for fire And I am as I was, sick with mercy and love The truth always was, we were hard wired [Bridge] So go brace for good times Do what feels right And send me the bill when you're tired [Chorus] Cause I am as I came and I'll still be the same I've got nothing to blame, I was hard wired I am as I was And I stay here because The truth always was, we were hard wired
