TOLD YA THEN

I test the power of a gesture with the might of my weakest hand

Meanwhile Lillian's in crisis and devours the song in a man

I been to places where my only concern is the width of the wall

Maybe Lillian can tell me if she hears anything at all

I like a desperate situation but only the kind where ya win

Ain't nothin Lillian can do about the favors I ask of a friend

Man, it hurts my eyes seeing Time Square on movie screens

I wonder if Lillian has thoughts about the post-american dream

The heavier sigh comes without feeling

What beckons the sky is the pleasure of land

Around again, it never ends

Lillian

It only takes about a minute to dirty up the shirt I wash

I hope Lillian don't find me scrubbing the good times off

I'm comin down, comin down, ain't nobody wanna see me crash

Just figure Lillian is busy with the ghost that knows of her past

The heavier sigh comes without feeling

What beckons the sky is the pleasure of land

You tell me now, I told ya then

Lillian
