Seventh Avenue Prophet |
| A pair of dog tags you called sympathy |
| Hung like a cross around your neck |
| On tired streets you sermoned tirelessly |
| For the crowds that gathered in your head |
| No one seems to notice as they pass |
| Battering rams can’t break through the glass |
| You said you can’t keep on running forever |
| Love is the only forever |
| You’re sure they’ll come around someday |
| '73 black leather bomber coat |
| Draped like a cassock across your chest |
| On stormy nights sometimes I’d stop and you would smile |
| And swear the rain don’t get us wet |
| No one seems to notice as they pass |
| Battering rams can’t break through the glass |
| You said you can’t keep on running forever |
| Love is the only forever |
| You’re sure they’ll come around someday |
| But no one ever came around |
| Those pretty words they let you down |
| And the last time I went by |
| The only thing that I could find |
| Was a beat up cardboard sign that said love will save us all |
| You had this grin that you called honesty |
| Smelled more like liquor on your breath |
| In a moment of clarity you said freedom’s just worth dying for |
| If you’ve got none to live for left |
| No one seems to notice as they pass |
| Battering rams can’t break through the glass |
| You said you can’t keep on running forever |
| Love is the only forever |
| You’re sure they’ll come around someday |
