lyrics

I asked for the same as Solomon
But my wisdom teeth still haven’t grown in.
And there’s a throbbing in my temples
The ones I built to extol false feelings of control.

So don’t call me a free thinker
No, my thoughts have cost me dearly.

Like Paul, I’ve got a thorn in my side
But when it won’t come out, it’s like I never even tried.
And things only gets worse with age
Paralyzing fear to act, ‘cause I’ll be booed off stage.

So don’t call me a healthy young man or even good company
When I can’t even say:

I’d like to live, I’d like to breathe
I’d like to drink fresh water, leave salty eyes with the Dead Sea.
I’d like to frown when I disagree
But I’d like to stay your friend from now until eternity.
I’d like to tear my finest clothes
Blow my infectious past out through the holes in my nose.
I’ll buy new shirts, rip off the tags
I won’t return anything, and I’ve already packed my bags.
I’m a convict; I’m a convert.

I’m a convert on the run.
