[solipsistnation]

who could sleep through all that noisy chatter?
the troops, the celebrations in the sun.
the authorities say my papers are all in order
and if I wasn't such a coward, I would run

meet me when all the shooting's over
meet me on the other side of town
yes, you can bring all your friends along for protection
it's always nice to have them hanging around

but I was thinking about my mother
and I was thinking about what's mine
I was living my life like a Hollywood
but I was dying
dying on the vine.
