Damn, I've never thought of them as even remotely touching on dark places like that. I can listen to music infintely without giving a second thought to the lyrics, unless something stands out enough as poetry to trigger the wordy part of my brain, or someone points it out to me, like you just did - don't know how many times I've had that song on in the background, he could have been reciting James Joyce in Hungarian for all I knew.
Long way from Dixie Chicken!
On June 15, 1979, George began a tour in support of his solo album,
Thanks I'll Eat it Here. On June 29, 1979, the morning after an appearance at Washington, D.C.'s
Lisner Auditorium where the bulk of
Waiting for Columbus had been recorded in 1977, George collapsed and died of a heart attack in his
Arlington, Virginia, hotel room at the
Twin Bridges Marriott. His heart attack was caused by an accidental cocaine overdose.
[15][16] George's body was cremated in Washington, D.C., on August 2. His ashes were flown back to Los Angeles, where they were scattered from his fishing boat into the Pacific Ocean.

According to
Fred Tackett, "We were driving down the
New Jersey Turnpike in this bus and we stopped at this
pizza joint off the highway. Everybody in the band shared a cheese pizza but Lowell bought a large pizza with everything on it, carried it to the back of the bus, and he ate the entire pizza by himself. He died two or three days later. So, when people ask me, 'What really killed Lowell?' I say, 'It was a pizza on the New Jersey Turnpike.'"

- when I OD sooner then later we r it will be to the album HoyHoy playin. Its touched my heart for my who I and and couldn't think of a better way to stop feeling my emotional plain. I'm never gonna be good enough and I cant handle being blamed for my mistakes everdsy when I struggle and I think death is the next logical step. Sitting here all night Vaping Brorphine from a light build nice Euphoria and eased aysntoms and helped made up my mind feel better. I can't handle so much pressure and I always ruin it and get really at all time .But remember I always loved you all your family to me, and please dont forget about me. Hope this helped and showed you more about this genius of the past century.
