Ex-Con
Whenever i get dressed up
I feel like an ex-con
Trying to make good
Jean jacket and tie
Feel like such a lie
When i go to your house
I feel like I'm
Casing the joint
In the grocery store
In line behind a mother and child
I'm going to take that child
See because alone in my room
I feel like such a part of the community
But out on the streets
I feel like a robot by the river
Alone in my room
I feel such a warmth for the community
But out on the streets
I feel like a robot by the river
Looking for a drink


Your Face
More beautiful than the sun.
More beautiful than the rain.
More beautiful than all these things,
was your face when you came.
Wilder than the ocean.
Wilder than storm clouds.
Compared to this,
these things were tame.
You face when you came.

But oh, when you faked it.
It was the most beautiful of all.
Of all, when you faked it.
It was the most beautiful of all.

  1. Dog the type on this blog is all over the place. Small sans, medium serif, medium sans . . . those ARE some good lyrics.
