Young Man Blues |
| I’m walkin' past liquor stores and immigrant homes… |
| Check into cash… |
| And men with eyes like ghosts. |
| As boys we were taught to dream in stacks and rows… |
| Cause to dream any bigger is to dig yourself a hole… |
| One bigger than you’re already in from the moment your life begins. |
| I’m soaked to the bone at Lawson Arms at 3 a.m. |
| This cold world has convinced me to betray myself again. |
| Some faceless men. |
| Shivering. |
| Betrayal. |
| I am one of them. |
| Never again. |
| I feel the loneliness of the long distance runner now. |
| This sterility is rotting me out. |
| Can’t live in service. |
| I’m dropping out. |
| Dropping out of tomorrow morning’s white washed suburban schemes. |
| Billboard |
| Masturbation: |
| Satisfaction Guaranteed. |
| I am the 4 a.m. |
| Arcade Street white bloodshot witness. |
| I’m just another kid in the chorus. |
| An empty street corner prophet. |
| Grimy hands clawing at the gutter on the eve of letting go of crimes against my |
| soul. |
| They planted their seed… |
| But I won’t let them… |
| Won’t let them tear through me. |
| 'Cause I’m a real cool killer with a killer blow. |
| A lock-jawed apprentice to my guts of gold. |
| Plastic surgery to fit the mold. |
| They’ll get you when you’re ugly and you’re feeling alone. |
| In this modern life… |
| Cheap and disconnected… |
| Where there is a siege going on and the besieged will be the last to know |
| That the race we are running is a joke, |
| And I’m a dropout. |
| Drop-Out. |
