lyrics

I see you
Yeah you're smiling
My arms are crossed baby
I'm not smiling
Your face reads like a well-written page
Yeah I've got colors in my closet
I just prefer to wear gray

Now I feel it in my toes
Walking in my shoes
Written on my eyes I see it
Clear as glass
The moment has passed
and now I'm just stuck here singing these

Ticket-taker blues
Ticket-taker blues
I want to ride I want to ride too
Ticket-taker blues
Ticket-taker blues
I want to ride Mama I want to ride too

I see you
Yeah you're laughing
Look at me baby I'm not laughing
I'm patiently dying smoking my cigarette
You said, "I dig your T-shirt."
Yeah well I know what that meant now I

Wear it on my clothes
It's wearing on my soul
It's in my blood I feel it
Running through my veins
Pumping the same
As it was when I first heard these

He becomes the persona of the songs, like an actor might embody a role. -Patrick Barcus ... more
