Latest Song

I just want a real song
I just want a quick line
And just for once I want to speak
Just exactly what's on my mind

I know all the right words
It's just finding those brave nerves
To bear all the blood that I pull
When I dig deep on down in my soul

Underneath this skin there's a mess of a
Backbone that's broken and bent
But in between these ribs there's a spark of a
Heart that won't let me pretend
Pretend what I am

I just want reality
to leave footprints behind me
I just want to shed all my clothes
And leave nothing left hiding

I know I've been holding out
It's time that I do it now
Point the barrel of Truth and my chest
Until falsity's laid to rest.

Chorus

I just want a real song
I just want a quick line
And just for once
Just for once I want to speak
