![]() Real Animal (2008) [ larger cover art ] |
Nobody left unbroken
Nobody left unscarred
Nobody here is talking
That's just the way things are
You had to go without me
You wandered off alone
And all the neon light reflects off the sidewalk
It all reminds me you're not coming home
Sister lost soul, brother lost soul
I need you
Sister lost soul, brother lost soul
I need you
Every last heart is hardened
And every last tears' been cried
Out on the street the water is frozen
And I feel like the only one alive
Sister lost soul, brother lost soul
I need you
Sister lost soul, brother lost soul
I need you
I long to lay down beside you
Feel your breath in my ear
You're not the first or last I've lied to
I'm lyin' to myself right now
You're still here
Sister lost soul, brother lost soul
I need you
Sister lost soul, brother lost soul
I need you
Sister lost soul, brother lost soul
I need you
Sister lost soul, brother lost soul

| scrubbrush | Posted: May 26, 2010 - 13:35 extremely average rock |
| Cynaera (South of Neanderthal) | Posted: May 26, 2010 - 13:33 I like this one a lot. I guess he's an acquired taste... ![]() |

However check out more of Mr. Escovedo's work. We saw him one night on Austin City Limits and he has some _great_ music. That was a great show. Something very haunting about his work. |
