Solid Jackson - Bright Eyes

She says she’s read too many fashion magazines

She’s forgotten what real love is like

And as the basement collects more kids off the street

They smoke themselves to death waiting for the band to begin

They’ve been tuning up there for an hour now

And I don’t think I can stand another minute more

But just then the first chord strums, and the drums set in

And I know what I have been waiting around for

Because no one’s going home until the morning comes

No one’s going to sleep until the sun comes up

Did you hear those first two songs?

They were fucking tuff

And the band’s not going to stop until the cops show up

So hold your applause until the end, and wait for the sadness to set in

Because that’s the only feeling that’s worth a damn

He says he’s done with the pop music scene

There’s too many opinions and so few are worth a shit

He has got to learn to act a little more mean

Because the mean ones always end up with the record deals

And it’s only when I’m angry that I feel complete

When we are screaming at each other is when I am most happy

I hang out with my friends and then I get depressed

And I drink myself to sleep with any strength that is left

And I quit going to church a year ago

And my teacher thinks that my faith is gone

But I can do without the eucharist because I found God

In a Solid Jackson song
