Kevin Devine - I Used To Be SomeoneLyrics

Fix your eyes at middle distance Rich queens, fur fezes, twin ridiculous Avenue of the Americas Between forty five and forty six Debt clock married to its up tick A trillion brilliant blinking digits Oh, the overwhelming evidence Incontrovertible and elegant Compartmentalize to make sense Of the arranged marriage of opposites As risen high as it is bottomless Here in the playground of the fabulous Quit second-guessing out your window Can't see two thousand through your telescope Leave ten years ago ten years ago Get back within yourself and listen close I came here dignified and dainty But I don't feel much like that lately Two left feet and gloves full up with thumbs "Aw shucks" and "pardon me" and "sorry, love" So tomorrow if you meet me In my tangle of apology Rest assured, I used to be someone A brother's brother and a mother's son
