Uncle Tupelo

Uncle Tupelo was an alternative country music group from Belleville, Illinois, active between 1987 and 1994. Jay Farrar, Jeff Tweedy, and Mike Heidorn formed the band after the lead singer of their previous band, The Primitives, left to attend college. The trio recorded three albums for Rockville Records, before signing with Sire Records and expanding to a five-piece. Shortly after the release of the band's major label debut album Anodyne, Farrar announced his decision to leave the band owing to a soured relationship with his co-songwriter Tweedy. Uncle Tupelo split on May 1, 1994, after completing a farewell tour. Following the breakup, Farrar formed Son Volt with Heidorn, while the remaining members continued as Wilco. more »

Sidetracked down the middle
Never saw it coming, what a surprise
It's been a wonder
Electricity tells a story

It's a sound getting near as fear is watching you
It's watching you close
You can fight it, both arms swinging
Or try to wash it away

Or pay up to the echoes of 'okay'
No more, no more will I see you
No more will I see you
No more will I see you

You've schemed more than you have
You've borrowed more than you know
Better to steal the crumbs
It makes it easier to go

Paralyzed by conscience
Looking for an opening
Apathy as your vocal cords cut out
Never thought once to ask how's the temperature

Too busy with the finer points
Of each struggle we're after
No more, no more will I see you
No more will I see you

No more will I see you
So long since I've seen you
Haven't we both been living the high life
It flows to the bottom

No more, no more will I see you
No more will I see you
No more will I see you
