Silver Patron Saints: The Origins

Jesse Malin is a New York based musician who first rose to fame with the influential punk band D Generation, and has since embarked on an acclaimed solo career. His Ryan Adams-produced debut, ‘The Fine Art of Self Destruction’ earned him comparisons to Neil Young and Tom Waits for its ragged, poetic beauty. Malin blurs the lines between singer-songwriter and punk rocker with a string of celebrated solo albums, including ‘Outsiders’, ‘New York Before The War’ and ‘Sunset Kids’. Malin has recorded with Bruce Springsteen and Green Day, performed on The Tonight Show, Conan, and Letterman, and shared stages with everyone from The Replacements and The Hold Steady to Bob Weir and The Gaslight Anthem. A prolific writer and relentless road warrior, Jesse Malin continues to circle the globe with his band and produce critically acclaimed studio albums.

Lyrics:
Shadows on my wall
And voices in the hall
I’m making up my own scene
Hanging out in room 13
I pull down the blackout shade
And watch the TV start to fade
Deadbolt on the lock
And I unplug the digital clock
Well I spent some time in a hotel room
Thinking about love
And I walked away like those others do
Oh when it’s not enough
The walls are paper thin
And I’ve seen everybody’s sins
All the liquor stores are closed
And I’m sleeping with the ghost
Well I spent some time in a hotel room
Thinking about love
And I walked away like those others do
Oh when it’s not enough
I just want to do the right thing
But I get dragged down on the wrong side
The girl on the telephone
She asked me when I’m coming home
And I’m falling somewhere in between
What she says and what she means
It was something that was said
Before the phone went dead
Like the sound of the falling rain
And the rumble of a train
Well I spent some time in a hotel room
Thinking about love
And I walked away like those others do
Oh when it’s not enough
Thinking about love

Lyrics:
I met my baby at a bar somewhere in Ohio
I guess I went a bit too far, now I'm in denial
Oh, she don't love me now
She don't love me now
Oh we had so many nights down there, down there in the village
Dressed up like each other's dreams, we were kinda killers
Oh, she don't love me now
She don't love me now
Oh, you don't love me like you say she do
Oh, you don't love me when you say she do
Well the nights are long, I got nowhere to go
I'm sick of the bars and I'm sick of the shows
Doin' my best, and I did what I could
Still got friends in the neighborhood
But oh, she don't love me now
She don't love me now
Oh, she don't love me now
She don't love me now
Oh you don’t love me when you say you would
Oh I could love you, only if I could
Oh you don't love me when you say
Oh, all I got is lost
Hanging on a cross
All I got and all I want and all I got is
Oh, she don't love me now
She don't love me now
Oh, she don't love me now
She don't love me now

Lyrics:
Coming down on a Monday
Another work day
When I saw her the first time
She tapped her nails on my window
She said let's go
And we left it all behind
Here she comes, down the street
Mountain high, river deep
Baby baby come on
Before the summer is gone
Black haired girl
Wanna go for a ride
Just like Bonnie and Clyde
Around the world
I can never resist
My little anarchist
Black haired girl
She's a seven day weekend
She don't pretend
When she's dancin' wild and free
Her momma she was a singer
And a dreamer
But her dad's a mystery
Baby baby come on
Before the summer is gone
Black haired girl
Wanna go for a ride
Just like Bonnie and Clyde
Around the world
I can never resist
My little anarchist
Black haired girl
Going down to the beaches
On the river city line
Where I tell her my secrets
She says I'll keep them with mine
Here she comes, down the street
Mountain high, river deep
We'll be M.I.A.
In the USA
My black haired girl
Gimme gimme a kiss
With your apocalypse
At the end of the world
Baby baby be my
Miss American pie
Black haired girl
Come down on a Monday
Another workday
Looking out of my window
Where did she go

Lyrics:
Joey was a man from the other side 
Came across the sea for a better life 
When he got close they made him change his name 

Push along a cart through the market place 
Keep it in your heart when you're getting spades 
But that was so many years ago 

I lived in many places, I've fallen out of graces 
I tried to feed the fire for so long 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

A Nietzsche mustache and a peasant's hat 
Five hungry kids in a water flat 
Maybe I'll make a little more today 

A new world dream and some old school pride 
He couldn't make a meet so he took his life 
I saw a photograph and made memories in my mind 

I've fallen out of graces, I've ran so many races 
I tried to breathe the fire for so long 

Hey man, where you going
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

Well he was on the blacklist in '53 
And he talked about the conspiracy 
He said the next war is gonna blow us all away 

I played in churches and I prayed in bars 
A young kid with a sad guitar 
To get close I had to go far away 

Well I became a drifter 
Sent postcards to my sister 
And I can hear her smile even when I'm far away 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

Well I drank with kings and danced with whores 
On mountain tops and distant shores 
But you made me feel like someone I wished to be 

I tried to wear my father's clothes 
I planted seeds that didn't grow 
With a handful of thorns I thought that I was free 

Worked in a bank, drove a diesel van 
Even Sonny Wortzik had a plan 
Do your time and get out of society 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

Now you're sitting in an office, you've never seen the world 
Gonna blame it on the government or a girl 
But there's somewhere else you know you'd rather be 

Scratching off the numbers in a liquor store 
Dreaming of picking up a '44 
Tell me more about your fantasy 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

From Spanish Harlem to Ditmas Park 
A lonely game of court and spark 
I wrote a song, I figured it's the only way 

While the girls from school all married stiffs 
WIth a flat screen and couple kids 
And they say a prayer in their own little way 

Well a friend of mine became a priest 
And we lost another in the Middle East 
Well, you know it's dark when atheists start to pray 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

Boxes in the corner neatly stacked 
Parts of me, paper and wax 
For a headline day to ride in that Cadillac 

And when it's over and I've had my fill 
They're gonna put my body up on Cypress Hill 
Near Houdini for the final disappearing act 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

Hey man, whatcha doing 
All along the road to ruin 
You know it's dark when Atheists start to pray 

From the fox holes to the quarter 
Got your mojo workin' 
Or whatever you believe in, all your voodoo 
Well, the river runs deep and the river runs wide

Lyrics:
I was thinking about another time still in my mind
When I used to know a little girl high on this world
Your baby loves you more than you know
Raised on rivalry and rock 'n' roll
Moving to the Motor City soul
She lets go
On the radio
Well we never had a lot of cash
But we loved those kids
Some say that she missed the boat
But she just burned the bridge
The angels love you more than you know
Raised on robbery and rock 'n' roll
Moving to the Motor City soul
She takes hold
On the radio
Stomach ache Sundays
And books we never read
Well I was hoping one day
We might meet again
She used to talk about astrology
She was born in June
She danced with strangers and celebrities
Empty stars and the full moon
I was thinking about the universe
For what its worth
Or the one about the Phoenix bird
That died and then returned
The angels love you more than you know
Raised on robbery and rock' n roll
Moving to the Motor City soul
Moving to the Motor City soul
Sometimes I see her face
When there's no place to go
On the radio
On the radio
On the radio
Broken radio

Lyrics:
Well I'm up on 24th Street and I'm looking at a life
Standing on a corner watching people passing by
I used to be somebody, man, I used to be someone
Now I'm feeling like a bullet in the chamber of a gun
I said hey, tell me what you're gonna do now
You're acting like you never been had
You're saying it's the end of the world again
When it all blows up
When it all goes down
When it makes you sick
But you're still around
When you ain't too pure
And you ain't too proud
When it all blows up
And it all blows down
Orpheus descending in the middle of the night
Well I'm standing by the speakers and I somehow feel alright
There's girls on lower Broadway in the summer and the smoke
I feel I'm at the wrong end man, of someone else's joke
I said hey, tell me what you want me to do
I feel like I got nowhere to go
Meet me at the end of the world again
When it all blows up
And it all goes down
When it sucks your soul
But you hang around
When you ain't too poor
And you ain't too proud
When it all blows up
And it all blows down
Alright
When it all blows up
And it all goes down
When it makes you sick
But you're still around
And you ain't too pure
And you ain't too proud
Just to get your kicks
In a lovesick town
When it all blows up
And it all blows down
And your late night friends
Don't come around
But the time is right
And the time is now
When it all blows up
And it all goes down

Lyrics:
Coming down on the seventh day
I'm burnin' in the rhythm of life
You dig a ditch like a working stiff
And it all goes passing you by

Well come on, everybody's got a lot to say
Come on, when you want to blow it all away
Come on, right now I can't feel no pain
Come on, kick the system and turn up the mains

And I feel okay, I feel okay, I don't feel

Your closet's stacked and your on your back
'Cause you've never been denied
You're feeling sore but you want some more
Ride, Sally, ride

Well come on, everybody's got a lot to say
Come on, when you want to blow it all away
Come on, right now I can't feel no pain
Come on, kick the system and turn up the mains

And I feel okay, I feel okay, I don't feel

The place is packed and the kids are jacked
On those anti-social songs
You swing low like a halo
And you're wishing you were never born

Well come on, everybody's got a lot to say
Come on, when you want to blow it all away
Come on, right now I can't feel no pain
Come on, kick the system and turn up the mains

And I feel okay, I feel okay, I don't feel
And I feel okay, I feel okay, I don't feel
And I feel okay, I feel okay, I don't feel

Lyrics:
Leaving Babylon
I was out of time and out of body on a Saturday night
Well my phone kept ringing but my heart had stopped
I really didn't want to go
Well I never had nothing
I never had much
I never had reason man
To tell you that I'd keep in touch
And it's a long way back through a sunset city
I made my bed I don't want no pity
I never say goodbye it just ends
Well I sold my records and my last guitar
On a night so dark I couldn't see the stars
Next thing I knew I was leaving
Leaving this Babylon
And it's a long way back through a sunset city
I made my bed I don't want no pity
I never say goodbye it just ends
And it's a mean old world
I'm slipping through society
Boys and girls of the devil's new economy
Looking out for the light up ahead
People talking 'bout me what I did and could have done
Like sand through my fingers or poison in my blood
Send my love to my daughters they did nothing wrong
Leaving Babylon, I am sailing on
And it's a long way back through a sunset city
I made my bed I don't want no pity
I never say goodbye, it just ends
And the ashes burn but my soul's delivered
From Tompkins Square to a holy river
I never say goodbye, it just ends
(Sailing on)

Lyrics:
Staring out the window as I ride on
I've been thinking about the world, where I've been and gone
Rolling like a river that heads upstream
I hear you're happier now since you got clean
They put you through the paces when you were young
And they still drink the Kool-aid back where you come from
You walked around town with your collar up
And you never got off on that racist stuff
Living in the state of the art
I'm trying not to take it to heart
While everything is falling apart
I know you wanted more this time
Oh, it's been a while since I heard from you
I know you don't like talking when you're feeling blue
I think I get it, man, cause I'm the same
When everybody else is trying kill the pain
I heard you called your sister from a holding cell
And your friends from the protest, they all wish you well
Another broken system and some killer cops
I read the papers and I cried a lot
Living in the state of the art
I'm trying not to take it to heart
While everything is falling apart
I know you wanted more this time
You always saw the sadness behind my jokes
While all your other friends were busy blowing smoke
Rolling with the punches in a world of lies
With Johnny on the jukebox singing Born To Cry
Like a faded picture of a starless night
All your dead heroes couldn't get it right
You find the silver lining as the thunder rolls
Well the night is dark but the moon is gold
Living in the state of the art
I'm trying not to take it to heart
While everything is falling apart
I know you wanted more
I know you wanted more
We all want something more this time

Lyrics:
I was born out in a borough
I was born inside a void
I was looking out for something that couldn't be destroyed
Running through the city with somebody else's sins
Well, all I really wanted was just somewhere to begin
Well they stab you in the back and they wanna see you crack
And they say you'll go to heaven in a brand new Cadillac
They wanna see you hurt, and they treat you just like dirt
And you soon find out that life is just a four-letter word
I was dealing with a feeling like a poor boy on the line
I was 16 years old in an A state of mind.
I was hanging out at Playland with some kids from Ozone park
Playing computer games and learned to kill like a shark
Well they stab you in the back and they wanna see you crack
And they say you'll go to heaven in a brand new Cadillac.
They're giving you a script and they wanna see you trip
But you spit the poison out cause you're sick of being sick
Hey, tell me what do want
Tell me what do you want from me
Well I made an appointment cause I needed some advice
But the doctor and the dealer man were charging the same price
They say they want my body but they can't touch my soul
I am gonna keep my distance, man, and play some rock and roll
But they stab you in the back and they want to see you crack
And they say you'll go to heaven in a brand new Cadillac
They tell you it's a sin but they want to stick it in
And all you ever wanted was just some where to begin
Hey, tell me what do you want
What do you want from me
I've seen some roll over
Some just grow colder
And turn to stone
I won't be broken I won't be stolen
I'll let it roll

Lyrics:
Organize my distance
No I won’t be home for Christmas

The Russian rain was falling on the golden arch
I felt your interest fading through the wire
And the gypsy kept on playin’ his nylon string guitar
All the way from moscow to new york
And I watch the dirty river roll by
And I dedicate this feeling to the ones in my life
And I watch the dirty river roll by
And they medicate the culture so you’re high and dry
And you don’t get your money back kid

They said the sky was falling and they played the hits
She was born in 1980 from a Cold War kiss
She said “I believe in something but I don’t know why
My parents felt the same but they’d never admit it”

And I watch the dirty river roll by
And I dedicate this feeling to the ones in my life
And I watch the dirty river roll by
And they medicate the culture so you’re high and dry
And you don’t get your money back kid

I would’ve liked to been there but I waited so damn long
And I had a funny feeling you were gone

She said the twin towers was an inside job
The boys went to the desert and we partied in a wartime fog
And the gypsy kept on playing his nylon string guitar
All the way from Moscow to New York

And I watch the dirty river roll by
And I dedicate this feeling to the ones in my life
And I watch the dirty river roll by
And they medicate the culture so you’re high and dry
And you don’t get your money back kid

You’ll never get your money back kid

Organize my distance
No I won’t be home for Christmas

Lyrics:
Now every cheap hood strikes a bargain with the world
And ends up making payments on a sofa or a girl
"Love and hate" tattooed across the knuckles of his hands
Hands that slap his kids around 'cause they don't understand how
Death or glory
Becomes just another story
Death or glory
Becomes just another story
And every gimmick hungry yob digging gold from rock and roll
Grabs the mic to tell us he'll die before he's sold
But I believe in this and it's been tested by research
He who fucks nuns will later join the church
Death or glory
Becomes just another story
Death or glory
Becomes just another story
Oh, ah ah ah, ow, ow
Oh, ah ah ah, ow, ow
Oh, ah ah ah, ow, ow
Fear in the gun-sights, they say lie low
You say ok, don't wanna play the show
Now all you're thinking, "Was it death or glory now?"
Playing the blues for pennies sure looks better now
Death or glory
Just another story
Death or glory
Just another story
From every dingy basement, on every dingy street
Every dragging handclap over every dragging beat
It's just the beat of time, the beat that must go on
If you've been trying for years, we 'lready heard your song
Death or glory
Becomes just another story
Death or glory
Just another story
Gonna march a long way
Fight a long time
Got to travel over mountains
Got to travel over seas
We're gonna fight you, brother
We're gonna fight 'til you lose
We're gonna raise trouble
We're gonna raise hell
We're gonna fight you, brother
Raise hell
Death or glory
Becomes just another story
Death or glory
Becomes just another story
Death or glory
Just another story
Death or glory
Becomes just another story

Lyrics:
Wake up with your sad luck story, oh somebody got murdered
Wake up from your paths of glory, oh nobody you'd heard of
Wake up from your bad dreams and lay them on the table
You're the last of a dying breed
And no stranger to the street
When you're young and you run and you're burning like a star
And it's fun and it's done and it leaves you with a scar
Wake up it's another year and oh, the lock and chain
Wake up and there's nobody near but oh, the pouring rain
Wake up don't waste your life on things that don't get better
When you go through living hell but you wear it oh so well
When you're young and you run and you're burning like a star
And it's fun and it's done and it leaves you with a scar
It's just another day you can throw away
Gonna fade away, gonna fade away
When you're young and you run and you're burning like a star
And it's fun and it's done and it leaves you with a scar
When it runs in your blood and you're taking it too far
And it's fun and it's done and it leaves you with a scar

Lyrics:
Waiting by the side of the road
For day to break so we could go
Down into Los Angeles
With dirty hands and worn out knees
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I keep crawling back to you
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I keep crawling back to you
The ranger came with burning eyes
The chambermaid awoke surprised
Thought she'd seen the last of him
She shook her head and let him in
Hey baby, there's something in your eyes
Trying to say to me
That I'm gonna be alright if I believe in you
It's all I want to do
It was me and my sidekick
He was drunk and I was sick
We were caught up in a barroom fight
Till an Indian shot out the lights
I'm so tired of being tired
Sure as night will follow day
Most things I worry 'bout
Never happen anyway
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I keep crawling back to you
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I keep crawling back to you
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I keep crawling back to you

Lyrics:
I’m going to South America
With nothing but my soul
From the dark side of New York
Five thousand miles from home

I’m going to South America
I’m going without a band
Down in Argentina
Below the Rio Grande

It’s not what I want
It’s just what I need

I’m going to South America
Don’t know when I’ll be back
Even when you don’t want me
You always have my back

My friend, Diego
And my friend, Louisa
With wine from Mendoza
And broke apart streets

And I hope you remember me like I remember you

This thing cannot be captured
This thing cannot be tied
This faith cannot be broken
Or taken from my eyes

I’m going to South America
With the book you gave to me
Written by a Spanish poet
From the 20th century

A fistful of pesos
And three stolen phones
And all the poor faces
Dream of Eva Perone

And I hope you remember me like I remember you

This thing cannot be captured
this thing cannot be tied
This faith cannot be broken
Or taken from my eyes

The ring that you gave me
A brother left behind
A thing that can take me, baby
Through the best of times

How can I tell this to you?

I think about young Eva
On those Recoleta nights
Before they said the revolution
Will not be lobotomized

I’m going to South America
For reasons of repair
I’d be lying if I told you
That I wasn’t scared

This thing cannot be captured
This thing cannot be tied
This faith cannot be broken
Or taken from my eyes

The ring that you gave me
A brother left behind
Something that can take me, baby
Through the best of times

And I hope you remember me like I remember you

Lyrics:
Coming down on the seventh day
I'm burnin' in the rhythm of life
You dig a ditch like a working stiff
And it all goes passing you by

Well come on, everybody's got a lot to say
Come on, when you want to blow it all away
Come on, right now I can't feel no pain
Come on, kick the system and turn up the mains

And I feel okay, I feel okay, I don't feel

Your closet's stacked and your on your back
'Cause you've never been denied
You're feeling sore but you want some more
Ride, Sally, ride

Well come on, everybody's got a lot to say
Come on, when you want to blow it all away
Come on, right now I can't feel no pain
Come on, kick the system and turn up the mains

And I feel okay, I feel okay, I don't feel

The place is packed and the kids are jacked
On those anti-social songs
You swing low like a halo
And you're wishing you were never born

Well come on, everybody's got a lot to say
Come on, when you want to blow it all away
Come on, right now I can't feel no pain
Come on, kick the system and turn up the mains

And I feel okay, I feel okay, I don't feel
And I feel okay, I feel okay, I don't feel
And I feel okay, I feel okay, I don't feel

Lyrics:
We never got a break
We live with our mistakes
Just icing on the cake and some cold heartbreak
Sentimental kids
With movies in our heads
We never figured out why she had to go
Keep on shining down on my life
Keep on shining down on me
We always were to blame
They changed the family name
Another sad refrain but I won't look back
I found another path
Through the broken glass
Everything was trash but it all worked out
Keep on shining down on my life
Keep on shining down on my life
Keep on shining down on me
I act like nothing hurts
The bar becomes a church
A limousine, a hearse and you don't look back
The one that couldn't fail
Married or in jail
Had moments of success in the shadow of the best
Keep on shining down on my life
Keep on shining down on my life
Keep on shining down on me
Keep on shining down on my life
Keep on shining down on me

Joey was a man from the other side 
Came across the sea for a better life 
When he got close they made him change his name 

Push along a cart through the market place 
Keep it in your heart when you're getting spades 
But that was so many years ago 

I lived in many places, I've fallen out of graces 
I tried to feed the fire for so long 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

A Nietzsche mustache and a peasant's hat 
Five hungry kids in a water flat 
Maybe I'll make a little more today 

A new world dream and some old school pride 
He couldn't make a meet so he took his life 
I saw a photograph and made memories in my mind 

I've fallen out of graces, I've ran so many races 
I tried to breathe the fire for so long 

Hey man, where you going
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

Well he was on the blacklist in '53 
And he talked about the conspiracy 
He said the next war is gonna blow us all away 

I played in churches and I prayed in bars 
A young kid with a sad guitar 
To get close I had to go far away 

Well I became a drifter 
Sent postcards to my sister 
And I can hear her smile even when I'm far away 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

Well I drank with kings and danced with whores 
On mountain tops and distant shores 
But you made me feel like someone I wished to be 

I tried to wear my father's clothes 
I planted seeds that didn't grow 
With a handful of thorns I thought that I was free 

Worked in a bank, drove a diesel van 
Even Sonny Wortzik had a plan 
Do your time and get out of society 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

Now you're sitting in an office, you've never seen the world 
Gonna blame it on the government or a girl 
But there's somewhere else you know you'd rather be 

Scratching off the numbers in a liquor store 
Dreaming of picking up a '44 
Tell me more about your fantasy 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

From Spanish Harlem to Ditmas Park 
A lonely game of court and spark 
I wrote a song, I figured it's the only way 

While the girls from school all married stiffs 
WIth a flat screen and couple kids 
And they say a prayer in their own little way 

Well a friend of mine became a priest 
And we lost another in the Middle East 
Well, you know it's dark when atheists start to pray 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

Boxes in the corner neatly stacked 
Parts of me, paper and wax 
For a headline day to ride in that Cadillac 

And when it's over and I've had my fill 
They're gonna put my body up on Cypress Hill 
Near Houdini for the final disappearing act 

Hey man, where you going 
Up town the river's rolling 
The sun comes, I'll be on my way 

Hey man, whatcha doing 
All along the road to ruin 
You know it's dark when Atheists start to pray 

From the fox holes to the quarter 
Got your mojo workin' 
Or whatever you believe in, all your voodoo 
Well, the river runs deep and the river runs wide

Lyrics:
Frankie baby wears leather boots
She likes the stooges and punk rock groups
Born in something she just can't win
She strives for pureness but she's built for sin
She tried it once with Jesus and she once was a June bride
When I met her on the bar stool she just smiled
Frankie, Frankie, Frankie, got me down on my knees
Frankie, Frankie, Frankie, going aahh!
Frankie baby's misunderstood
All the time in the neighborhood
She's the beauty that they can't get, she's the freedom that they resent
A well respected husband but your kids don't know you well
Hiding with your whore at the motel...
Paul wears lipstick and a dress
Frankie lives like any man would do
You feel you've sinned so you confess
But it don't go
What you are is just what you are!
I can't love you!

Lyrics:
From the alleys to the valleys
See 'em ridin' just like sally
When you wake up in the middle
And you just can't stay

I've seen the movies and the groovies
And I'm searching for a ruby
In the gutter with a promise
And I'm on my way

Send us all to high school
Make us pray to statues
So we hang on corners lookin' bored

All the rubbish that you cherish
With your hedonistic pleasures
And your latest status symbols
Just can't stay

Seen the majors chase the minors
With the military blinders
Dangle carrots in the faces
Of the u.s.a.

I hate the local stiffness
And all the capitol sickness
You know they're waiting on a war

Whisper in my ear dear
(tell me something)
Why does suicide have such appeal
(never nothin')
No way-goin'
Like sailors
And valentine
Failures
Ducking
Rejection with
Walls of 
Protection

Degeneration
Cross the nation
Lonely callers masturbation
For a minute

Just can't stay
All the wheelers and the dealers
And the zombies kill the feelings
With a bottle and a vial
And I'm on my way

I seen my mother
Watch her dreams just
Smother

Don't want to sing the graveyard song

Whisper in my ear dear
(tell me something)
Why do you pretend it ain't fucking real
(never nothin')
No way-heart felt attraction
That never takes action
Just meetings and functions
And social corruptions

All your niches and your stitches
I'm not lyin' back and wishin'
For a Cinderella savior
And I just can't stay
Call us fags and call us phonies
But I make the ginamone 
And you hate it cause I shake 
It
And I'm on my way

I can't wait till Christmas
Barking in the darkness
A broken hero at the bar

Whisper in my ear dear
(tell me something)
Why does suicide have such
Appeal
(never nothin')

No way out
No way out
No way now
No way!

Fire to ashes
And candy store flashes
Scars from the gashes
And yesterday passes

From the alleys to the
Valleys
See 'em ridin' just like sally
When you wake up and you
Just can't stay

Lyrics:
Waking up in Dallas
And the lights are low and dim
We all want somewhere to begin
I sent for my prescription
But it hasn't shown up yet
I'll know the feeling when it does
Greener pastures always wait for you
Tell the story one more time
What you ask for starry-eyed and blue
You can make it if you try
I went to see a movie
That everybody liked
Made me wish I was a better guy
I'm waiting on a vision
But it hasn't shown up yet
We all know the river's gonna rise
Greener pastures always wait for you
Tell the story one more time
What you ask for starry-eyed and blue
You can make it if you try
I lost a friend this morning
Well I just saw them last week
This fragile world's so bittersweet
I'm waiting on an answer
But it hasn't shown up yet
We all want a reason to believe
Greener pastures always wait for you
You can make it tonight
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la

Lyrics:
On the off chance that I see you
And we walk on like we don’t care
It’s been so long since I left here
On the downside with a cross to bear
Remember when we first arrived
We were lookin’ for a place to hide

St. Marks Sunset carry me down
All my friends are hangin’ around
Church bells are ringin’ for the poor and the proud
St. Marks Sunset carry me down

From the outskirts and the suburbs
Seeking shelter in each other’s eyes
Well we played hard and we let loose
And we held on to each other’s lies
Remember when we used to laugh
At everybody that was walkin’ past

St. Marks Sunset carry me down
All my friends are hangin’ around
Church bells are ringin’ for the poor and the proud
St. Marks Sunset carry me down

Though the styles keep on changin’
Generations in repair
Wish I knew now what I knew back then

On the off chance that we cross paths
And somehow it feels ok
You were all I ever wanted but the lights changed
And I walked away

St. Marks Sunset carry me down
All my friends are hangin’ around
Church bells are ringin’ for the poor and the proud
St. Marks Sunset carry me down

Lyrics:
My parents split up in the first grade
My father never did come back
My sister liked John Travolta
But I wanted Billy Jack

Throwing things off of the rooftops
40 buildings all the same
My mother took a job as a waitress
Swimming in the divorce age

When you're all alone
And you're all alone
When you're all alone and you're almost grown

Me and Holly snuck into night clubs
The politics of punk rock church
We were so idealistic
But somehow only saw the worst

When you're young and violent sick and silent
Hoping just to be admired
Water seeks it's level of pain
And you're all alone
And you're all alone
And you're all alone
And you're almost grown

Some old friends retired too
But they still laugh about me and you

My mother's ashes went into the ocean
Scattered on a windy day
She used to like Frank Sinatra
Cigarettes and JFK

Some retired some expired some were meant
To be admired for a moment at a young age
But I don't care what they say others went and got away
I just want to see her again

When you're all alone
When you're all alone
When you're all alone
You're almost grown
When you're all alone and your heart is stone
