GHOST PIGEON

from Guilty Rainbow (2011 album) by Roommate

lyrics

i am
a privileged man

i was loved as a child
and my love has grown wild
and my wants have grown plenty

when my cup is empty
it is easily filled
and when blood is spilled in waves
i may cry for days
but its swirling eddies
never reach me

i am not ready for whatever it is you are trying to teach me
i am not ready for your clever attempts to beseech me
i am stubborn and petty i am stubborn and petty
and i am not ready

i am not ready
