On Tour With Zykos Lyrics - The Stand Ins - Okkervil River

He gets close, but I choke 

Take your shit, take your clothes 

And get out of my home 

I want you to love me 

Or I want you long gone 

You say your real name is John 

Hey, thanks John 

Go sing songs, go rock on 

Roll your crew on down the road 

To the next sold out show 

Think you can get up above me? 

Well, I want you to know 

You're a figure of fun to everyone 

'Neath the lone star, neon blue broken sign 

They wish they were you 

Like I wish you were mine 

What a dumb thing to do

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

How come I shout "Goodbye" 

When god knows I just want to 

Make this white lie big enough 

To climb inside with you 

Another day, lost and gone 

Clipping pages from the news for the senator's son 

Well, he just strolls through the lobby 

And glad-hands everyone 

Another day, tossed and done 

I go home, take off clothes 

Smoke a bowl, watch a whole TV movie 

I was supposed to be writing 

The most beautiful poems 

And completely revealing 

Divine mysteries up close 

I can't say that I'm feeling 

All that much at all 

At 27 years old 

Photos 

I'm discussed with desire by the guys who conspire 

At the only decent bar in town 

And they drink MGD's 

And they wish they had me 

Like I wish I had fire 

What a sad way to be 

What a girl who got tired 

So, I wonder who you got your hooks in tonight 

Was she happy to be hooked and on your arm? 

Did she feel alive? 

Her head all light
