The Sound of One Name Dropping
Bird of Youth

I went out tonight


And met some people I already knew


I touched the wall


And I asked what should I do


You cave, and kill the lights


Relive all the fights, learn your moves


Then craft some cutting comments

For the evening news




You've run your mouth right down


Into the ground and it shows


Quit your fakin, you're makin sure


That everybody knows


That boy don't make a sound


As you drag his name through the ground


But your bragging and your baggage, man,

It's so damn loud

y


Eah he could've been a father


He's every woman's son


Look at all the tricks he taught her


Ain't she pretty, ain't this fun


You'd best put on your brave face


Cause you're staring down the sun


Those aren't weapons,

They're just broken little toys




Tonight....




I see comedy in the fact that

We're both winning


Hey, you scored, when the seasons changed


And you stepped out of the ring


I see fallacy in the fact that


We're both shilling


But what you're selling comes so cheap




You're lying tangled in the corner


They've gone and placed their bets


And all that lies upon the table


Is another cigarette


You see a last ditch move to strike now


It just sounds the same


As all the kids out back

With skateboards makin noise




Tonight...


Tonight...


I'm gonna give this street

A whole new name




Someone played a old song


You were out there playing games


And the choice of conversation


It was looking rather plain


Now your bridges are all burning and


You're dancing in the flames


And you'd like to think

You never had a choice




Tonight...


Tonight...


Tonight...


We're gonna let you win at your own game
