lyrics
We can make up for each other's wounds left by past lovers
I can drown you out with noise so easily.
Or just remember every morning
that you're embedded in my being
remember when you said you'd bury me?
Oh well I guess you said a lot of things.
Why's it so hard for you to be a man?
Oh, don't I just hate that you're so much happier than I am
Sometimes I wish that I were older
and then I wish that you came later
then I wish that everyone else were out of the picture
Sometimes I wish that I had fists up
Sometimes I wish that I had knives out
would I still be this train wreck?
This train wreck that I am now
Why's it so hard for you to be a man?
Oh, don't I just hate that you're so much happier than I am
I love my lungs, I love my lungs
I seldom show it
I love my mind, I love my mind,
although I abuse it
They love their lungs, they love their minds, they love their bodies
and when they taste each other's tongues
they all get lonely.
Released in 2001, “The Convincer” is a gentle gem in the Nick Lowe catalog; an anniversary edition provides opportunity for rediscovery. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 20, 2021
