תשובה אחת

i'm standing in brooklyn just waiting for something to happen.
i cant help but love thinking that everyone doesnt get it.
to my left is a window.
where did i go?
my reflection just blends in to rows of clothes
and bad ideas, but ideas nonetheless and so...

i put one foot in front of the other one.
i dont need a new love or a new life just a better place to die.

i happen to stumble upon a chapel last night.
and i cant help but back up when i think of what happens inside.
i got friends locked in boxes (that's no way to live).
what you're callin' a sin isn't up to them.
after all (after all), i thought we were all your children.

but i will die for my own sins thanks a lot.
well rise up ourselves thanks for nothing at all,
so up off the ground
our forefathers are nothing but dust now.

maybe i should learn to shut my mouth.
i am over twenty-five and i cant make a name for myself
some nights i break down and cry
im lucky that my fathers still alive
hes been fighting all his life
and if this is all ive ever known then may his soul live on forever in my song.

just a better place to die.
