mockingbirds - grant lee buffalo

Devastation at last finally we meet
After all of these years out here on the street
I had a feeling you would make yourself known
You came along just to claim your place on the throne
And I have been overthrown
Overthrown

And I thought if I towed the right lines
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine

Devastation my door was left open wide
You brought me into your heart then you swallowed my pride
I had a feeling you were hiding your thoughts
I made a note to myself I nearly forgot
Now I am overwrought
I'm overwrought

And I thought if I towed the right lines
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine

One day this ground will break
And open up for me I hope it will I hope it will

Salutations at last down on my knees
I heard the bugle this morn blast reveille
Woke from a dream where I was in a terrible realm
All my sails were ablaze I was chained to the helm
And now I am overwhelmed
I'm overwhelmed

And I thought if I towed the right lines (devastation at last)
But these mockingbirds won't let me shine

YESSS!! Good call, Blasfemme. I love Grant Lee Buffalo. That Mr. Phillips has an incredible voice. Have you ever heard their contributions to the Velvet Goldmine soundtrack? Cool stuff, if you have yet to indulge.

Hope all is well in MPLS.
