Bared every piece of my soul I knew how Still these trees remain barer Thrown a hundred frisbees in spring Turned a thousand saucers in fall Still pie in the sky wins Watched a lot of people Seen a ton of smiles Still trust is obsolete Walked a million streets or more Tamed even more shoes Still I’ve gotten nowhere Read all the books they told me to Seen all the classic flicks Still most amazed by fire’s flicker Every city seems the same Every person less a wonder Still they say life is wonderful And the wedding gowns blend into the snow I somehow like them better that way Still one or the other seems off-white Plucked the petals off a garden Wished on endless shooting stars Still no miracle of love

Tear Ducts & Itchy Palms
Bared every piece of my soul I knew how Still these trees remain barer Thrown a hundred frisbees in spring Turned a thousand saucers in fall Still pie in the sky wins Watched a lot of people Seen a ton of smiles Still trust is obsolete Walked a million streets or more Tamed even more shoes Still I’ve gotten nowhere Read all the books they told me to Seen all the classic flicks Still most amazed by fire’s flicker Every city seems the same Every person less a wonder Still they say life is wonderful And the wedding gowns blend into the snow I somehow like them better that way Still one or the other seems off-white Plucked the petals off a garden Wished on endless shooting stars Still no miracle of love
