about

This girl, Ronnette, has taken our scarecrow's heart and thrown it over there.

lyrics

You say I can have your lips
But I have to beg, trading shame for kiss
Either way I can never have your heart
You said that you couldn’t see
It was meant to be, I wanted it to be
I knew you knew it wasn’t from the start
“You’re a good man,” you said to me
“For any of the other liars,
But you’re not who I think I need;
I’ve a spark but not a fire.”

You toss me left and you toss me right
I won’t go gentle into the night
You’re like a storm upon my shore
And I won’t let you stop till you give me more
And I’m a shipwreck on a beach
Sunken treasure out of reach
Weathered by winds so
Radical

I never thought I’d feel like this
On my knees again, trading shame for kiss
But the way you make me feel I can’t describe
Let’s work a little deal out,
The first one’s free if I make you shout
Hey, begging’s just as easy as a bribe
“It’s time that you got over me,”
I probably should just forget her
“But I still need you, can’t you see?
There’s no friend I like better.”

You toss me left and you toss me right
I won’t go gentle into the night
You’re like a storm upon my shore
And I won’t let you stop till you give me more
And I’m a shipwreck on a beach
Sunken treasure out of reach
Weathered by winds so
Radical

Break-ups are supposed to hurt
And the first is worst… the first is worst?
So that means things will get much better, right?
I never thought it would last forever
Just more than never
But I guess it’s time to kiss this heart goodnight

Don’t you see you’re breaking my heart?
Getting drunk off capri suns
Till she blacks out

You toss me left and you toss me right
I won’t go gentle into the night
You’re like a storm upon my shore
And I won’t let you stop till you give me more
And I’m a shipwreck on a beach
Sunken treasure out of reach
Weathered by winds so
Radical

She said I could still be her friend
But she said the fling would have to end
How could I possibly get over this?
I should have begged for just one kiss…

about

Kevin Calaway Seattle, Washington

I could while away the hours conferring with the flowers, consulting with the rain - but who has time for that? I regulate my mood with musical catharsis and publish my diary on the internet for the whole world to hear, wearing my heart and my influences on my sleeve like a man who really needs to do laundry. ... more
