In competition for the worst first line I could use
|
in conversation for the first time
|
Find salvation and breathe in each breath that I choose
|
in competition for the worst time
|
Brooklyn lies bleeding in the afternoon
|
always four or five steps from misfortune
|
To drown out moments of revelation
|
in competition for the worst time
|
|
I know my name but I can't deny
|
I talk in silence like I'm used to
|
|
Graduation fits the worst time I could use
|
|
confidence for the first time
|
Take the money and the drink you are going to refuse
|
in competition for the worst time
|
Glasgow lies bleeding in the afternoon
|
a practical response to good fortune
|
I dream my moments of revelation
|
in competition for the worst time
|
|
And though I know my name
|
I still can't deny
|
I talk in silence like I'm used to
|
No matter how hard I try
|
I talk in silence like I'm used to
|
