Track from the upcoming Sad Bastard Ballads.

Everything and the Stars

I head through the back room
I couldn’t even touch myself
Pulling me backwards
Everyone else was buried in the dark
At home in the back room
Always holding onto you
Touching me backwards
I offered you everything and the stars
And the stars
And the stars

I’m watching the sidewalks
I wouldn’t stay here if I tried
But we’re all such cowards
Everything else was blooming at the start
Dead on the sidewalk
Counting the footsteps on my face
And I’m such a coward
You offered me everything and the stars
And the stars
And the stars

How many licks does it take to get to the center of the universe
Riding a solar wind to the next stop shopping delight
Whatever I say I know you’ll do what you want and that’s what I like about you
You can go anywhere that you like Italy, Spain, and the stars
And the stars
And the stars
