Lyrics
Found
By Alyssa Hendrix
You knock on my door round about 3am
And you're lucky I don't sleep anymore
And you scatter lyrics like paint
I'm not sure that it goes with my gloomy decor
'Cause there's something in sunshine that strips back the skin
And I don't want you to see me bleeding
I've spent the whole evening pretending I'm whole and uncut
Am I succeeding?
And I am so hungry I don't want to eat
And I am so brave that I'm frightened
I am so crazy I just might be sane
Could I be so lost I'm enlightened?
Or could I just be found
Now I'm starving and shivering licking my wounds
Who knew that melodies have claws
And I've tried my whole life to live off of my songs
But you cannot get blood from applause
So I'll get a hot dog from the cart on the street
And I'll sit and I'll drink in the city
It might not be music but at least it's got life
And Chicago well she sure is pretty
And I am so hungry I don't want to eat
And I am so brave that I'm frightened
I am so crazy I just might be sane
Could I be so lost I'm enlightened?
Or could I just be found
Do you ever get so lonely you couldn't stand
Anyone else coming around
Do you ever get so tired staying awake
Seems to keep you six feet above ground
Should we march on the Capital staking our claim
Or will rain and high wind keep us idle
Have you noticed how singing and lack of good songs
Can turn even the best fratricidal
Or are we just too tired
You knock on my door round about 3am
And you're lucky I don't sleep anymore
